FedEx 195, a B777 just made an unscheduled stop in Whitehorse and was greeted with fire trucks. Seems precautionary. It was enroute from Memphis to Anchorage. Anyone know what gives?

Fire Suppression System automatically discharged in position 2L but no sign of combustion once on the ground. Just a lot of foam on the main deck!
