SAN DIEGO — A United Airlines plane returned to San Diego International Airport Tuesday morning shortly after take-off when an external laptop battery pack caught fire in the cabin.


United Airlines Flight 2664, a Boeing 737 on route to Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey, landed safely back in San Diego around 7:30 a.m., Federal Aviation Administration officials said.


Emergency crews responded shortly after when the plane was back on the ground, with the responders bringing the aircraft safely from the runway to Gate 43.


The device was placed in a fire bag by the airplane crew to prevent the blaze from spreading, according to the San Diego Fire Department.


Four passengers were transported to a UCSD Health hospital with minor, non-life- threatening injuries due to smoke inhalation. Two customers on the flight opted not to be transported.
