U.S. authorities are investigating suspicious packages on cargo planes at two northeastern airports, after sources said a suspicious package was found on a cargo plane in Britain.

The planes being looked at Friday are in Philadelphia and Newark, New Jersey. Newark is just outside New York City.

The aircraft -- both operated by United Parcel Service (UPS) -- have been moved away from other airplanes as authorities investigate.

RKB will be interviewed by Vaming Xiong on KJAY AM 1430 today at 4:05 Eastern time to discuss the federal prosecution against people who were attempting to aid the Hmong people who are currently facing a genocidal campaign being waged against them by the Laotian government.
