Hi guys! It's nice to give a link to press articles, but it would be even better to write a short summary in English of what happened, like hereunder:

A United Airlines plane with more than 200 passengers on board, flying from Chicago to Brussels, had to turn back due to a "security problem," said news sites The Republic and Chicago Tribune on Saturday. Flight UA972 was scheduled Friday at 18:00 (local time) and was due to arrive in Brussels on Saturday around 9:00. However, the plane landed in Chicago at 22:07, where it was welcomed by the police.

The FBI is responsible for the decision to stop the plane, but no arrest has been made.

The passengers were rerouted on another flight to Brussels.

Neither the FBI nor the airline did give any details on the nature of the security problem suspected.
