A Ryanair flight from Faroe to Dublin was diverted to Spain this afternoon, following a bomb scare on board. Flight number FR7055 which was due to arrive in Dublin at 2.50pm this afternoon was diverted to Santiago in Northern Spain after the captain received a warning that there was a bomb on board. The aircraft, with 187 people on board landed safely in Santiago and was "thoroughly checked" by members of the local bomb squad. It is due to take off from Santiago around now and is expected in Dublin at around 10.30pm tonight.
