Lufthansa jet in emergency landing


(CNN) -- A Lufthansa jet en route from Istanbul to Frankfurt has made an emergency landing in Budapest after airline officials received a security threat, an airline spokesman said.

No one was hurt, the spokesman said from the German city of Frankfurt.

Flight LH3341 departed Istanbul with 169 passengers at 1:55 p.m. (6:55 a.m. ET), and was diverted after officials received the security threat from an anonymous source, the spokesman said.

Officials in Budapest evacuated the passengers and searched the Airbus A-321. Finding nothing out of the ordinary, they authorized it to depart for Frankfurt Sunday night.

CNN Producer Masha Medvedeva contributed to this report.
