Aer Lingus flight forced to turn back

http://www.rte.ie/news/2006/0717/aerlingus.html
An Aer Lingus flight from Dublin to Chicago was forced to turn back today when a suspect package was discovered on board.
Flight EI125 was 30 minutes out from Dublin Airport when a member of the cabin crew heard a beeping noise coming from a box in an overhead bin.
The pilot decided to turn back as a precautionary measure and the plane landed at Dublin Airport at 4pm.
Passengers disembarked and security services examined the box. It contained a number of in-flight magazines. There was a ticking noise coming from a piece of medical equipment, which was stored behind the box.
The plane is due to depart for Chicago later this evening
