Smell of smoke forces plane's return to Boston

BOSTON --An American Airlines flight bound for San Juan, Puerto Rico,
has returned to Boston for an emergency landing about an hour after
takeoff after a spokesman says the smell of smoke was discovered in a
rear bathroom.

American Airlines spokesman Tim Wagner says Flight 1937 returned
Saturday to Boston's Logan International Airport at 9:45 a.m. Wagner
says none of the 185 people on board were injured.

Maintenance workers are examining the plane and the flight has been
canceled. Wagner said passengers have been rerouted to other flights.

Earlier this week, an Air France flight out of Boston heading to Paris
was forced to return after a warning light flashed for one of its
engines.
