BOSTON AP Traffic was briefly halted at Boston's Logan Airport after a Delta Connection flight headed to Columbus, Ohio, aborted takeoff and evacuated passengers because of a smell of smoke.
Airport spokesman Phil Orlandella says takeoffs and landings were halted for about 25 minutes after the flight was aborted at about 10:30 a.m. Friday.

He said there were 25 passengers and three crewmembers on board and no reports of injuries.Orlandella says the smell may have been caused by deicing fluid, but it's still under investigation.
