An American Airlines jet from Jackson to Dallas has been diverted to Shreveport because of an electrical problem.
Airport spokesman Mark Crawford says flight 2871, with 48 passengers and 3 crew aboard, landed in Shreveport just before 10:30 AM without incident.
The pilot reported an electrical odor, but saw no smoke.
The plane is still in Shreveport awaiting repairs.
