M1 closed near East Midlands Airport for Jet2 emergency

[mhm]

A section of the M1 was closed due to an "aircraft emergency" on a flight from Gran Canaria.
Police closed the motorway in both directions near East Midlands Airport to allow "a clear flight path" for the plane, which landed safely on Saturday.
Traffic was stopped between J23a and J24 at 21:30 GMT for about 20 minutes.
East Midlands Airport said the closure was "precautionary" after a Jet2 flight with 153 people on board alerted them to a suspected malfunction.
