FULL TITLE: Gunman kills at least five people and wounds nine at Florida airport: Shooter in a Star Wars shirt opened fire in Fort Lauderdale baggage claim aiming for victims' heads - and more shooters are reported

The deadly shooting at Ft. Lauderdale-Hollywood Airport is not over yet.

Sources tell DailyMail.com that there is another shooter in the parking garage.

Five people were killed and another six injured when a guman opened fire in the baggage claim area of Terminal 1 around 1pm.

The gunman in that incident - who was wearing a Star Wars shirt -was taken into custody and has since been identified as 26-year-old Esteban Santiago of New Jersey. Santiago was carrying a military ID.

About 90 minutes later, chaos broke out again when more gunshots were heard. Police officers were seen rushing into the parking garage with their guns drawn while bystanders sought shelter behind vehicles.

The TSA confirmed that there was another active shooter situation and issued an order to shelter in place.

Supposedly he came in on a flight from Canada, had a checked gun, then for some reason in baggage pickup he takes weapon to restroom, loads it and shoots everybody in the head, its gotta be a Muslim.

“Esteban Santiago”

Is that his real name or his Sith Lord name?

"...as 26-year-old Esteban Santiago of New Jersey. Santiago was carrying a military ID. ... more shooters are reported "

I wonder if it's somehow related to Cuba? There is a large Cuban population in both Florida and New Jersey.

My guess is not Muslim terrorism, but some form of Trump derangement outburst, location seems to indicate that possibility. (to be clear, I mean the sort of mad response we’ve seen already to the election of Donald Trump)
