A San Francisco-bound JetBlue flight departing from New York City was forced to make an emergency landing in Michigan Tuesday night after a laptop battery caught on fire, authorities said. Flight 915 from John F. Kennedy Airport was diverted "due to a lithium battery fire from a passenger's laptop," the Federal Aviation Administration said in a statement to Fox News. The flight landed at Gerald Ford International Airport in Grand Rapids, Mich., about 8 p.m. local time. Firefighters responded to the incident at the Michigan airport as a precaution, but the fire was already extinguished by the time the plane landed, the airport posted on Twitter. Officials refueled the plane in Michigan and it continued to San Francisco, arriving at 12:04 a.m. local time-- about three hours behind schedule.
