Air Force One forced into emergency U-turn as police and presidential motorcade speed to US air base
Air Force One was forced into an emergency U-turn in the middle of the night - just as Donald Trump was heading to Davos.
Mr Trump's presidential plane had jetted out over the Atlantic when it was forced into a 180-degree turn.
The highly-modified Boeing 747 had to return to Joint Base Andrews in Maryland after crew discovered an "issue" aboard.
Then, footage on social media showed police-escorted vehicles storming down a motorway to meet the plane as it came in.
The fault was later identified as "a minor electrical issue" - which was found shortly after take-off.
Mr Trump's trip to the World Economic Forum in Switzerland will continue on a new aircraft, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said.
