Bomb disposal officers last night removed a suspect package from an airport in Co Fermanagh.
The item was found on a small plane at St Angelo - a small airport outside Enniskillen. The PSNI said the package was taken away by army technical officers for further examination.
There has been no official confirmation from the PSNI regarding what the package contained but a spokeswoman this morning said it was not an explosive device.
The airport, which is close to a number of residential houses and a busy sawmill business, is mainly used by recreational fliers and private jets. The security alert saw the main Enniskillen to Kesh road closed for a period.
Fermanagh and South Tyrone Assembly member Tom Elliott expressed concern at the incident.
"It is very concerning for the entire Northern Ireland community when we learn of more security alerts," said the Ulster Unionist representative. "Many people within the area will obviously be worried about the impact that such a disturbance will have in the area and to the community.
The PSNI said inquiries were ongoing.
