to air traffic control, saying "the flight attendants are trying to put it out now", according to audio obtained by the BBC's US reporting partner CBS News. "I think we have about four to five passengers that were burned by the laptop. The laptop is located near the middle of the aircraft." One passenger received medical attention on site and was released after American Airlines Flight 2398 - coming from Atlanta, Georgia - landed at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport in Texas on Friday. The airline told the BBC that the flight landed safely "after reports of smoke from a customer's device during landing. We thank our crew for their professionalism and swift response to quickly contain the device". After landing, the aircraft taxied to the gate, and emergency personnel met the aircraft upon arrival, per procedure. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) warns that lithium batteries, including laptop batteries, are capable of overheating "as a result of various factors, including if the battery is damaged, overheated, exposed to water, overcharged, or improperly packed". The FAA recorded 58 verified lithium battery air incidents so far this year involving smoke, fire or extreme heat. In the last 20 years, the highest number of incidents was related to battery packs, with 84 cases related to laptops. Lithium batteries must be stowed in carry-on baggage only, the US regulator says. In May, a UK-bound EasyJet flight from Egypt was diverted to Rome after a power bank was found to be charging in a passenger's luggage in the hold of the aircraft. The flight was rescheduled for the next day. The UK's aviation regulator the Civil Aviation Authority has said power banks are causing a growing number of serious issues on flights worldwide, and urged more awareness as portable chargers carry "serious risks" of overheating or catching fire.
