The Canadian Press, 25 Apr, 2016 11:21 AM
    HALIFAX — A UPS plane that was diverted to Halifax because of mechanical problems has landed without incident.
     
    Stanfield International Airport spokesman Peter Spurway says the cargo plane was en route from Louisville, Ky., to Cologne, Germany, when it was diverted.
     
    Spurway says emergency vehicles were standing by but the plane touched down uneventfully just before 10 a.m. local time.
     
    There were four people aboard, and Spurway says there are no reports of any injuries.
