Fire extinguisher goes off on Mich.-to-NY flight

(AP) =96 43 minutes ago

ROCHESTER, N.Y. =97 A flight carrying 94 people from Detroit to
Rochester, N.Y., has landed safely after a fire extinguisher in the
plane's cargo hold went off.

Authorities say Northwest Airlines Flight 2903 was about 30 miles
outside of Rochester on approach Sunday night when an indicator
alerted the crew of a possible problem in the cargo hold.

Greater Rochester International Airport Director David Damelio says
the plane landed a few minutes ahead of schedule. He says there was no
fire or smoke in the cargo hold.

Investigators are trying to determine whether a change in pressure
forced the fire extinguisher to go off.

A Northwest Airlines spokesman said he could not immediately comment.
