FORT LAUDERDALE (CBSMiami) — Federal law enforcement sources said the suspected gunman in a deadly attack at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport got into an argument during his flight from Alaska to Florida.

They’re now investigating whether that’s what set off a shooting rampage that left 5 dead and 8 others wounded.

Esteban Santiago-Ruiz, 26, took a flight from Alaska to Florida Friday with a stop in Minnesota, officials said. Somewhere along the way, he got into an argument.

According to Broward Commissioner Chip LaMarca, Santiago-Ruiz arrived from a flight with a gun that he checked in.

Was thinking earlier that he might have been shooting other people on his same flight.

It appears from one video of victims on the ground that the shooting happened at the baggage carousel.

If he was spouting pro-Islam or anti-Trump stuff to other passengers who argued back, the MSM will bury that info.

I quit watching network news several years ago because it was so biased.

Well this afternoon, I tuned in to the 5:30 news just to see what happened at the airport. I watched around 10 minutes and had to turn it off.

They have actually gotten worse! I mean these guys could give lessons to Pravda. So one sided that you cannot possibly know the truth.

He should have been FLAGGED for having a GUN AFTER LANDING!

No, he was within his rights to carry it in the manner he did because of his permissions granted by the Guard and, apparently, the Army.

CWP owners are concerned that this permission may be denied to them in the future because of this murderous rampage at the airport today.

Are you saying his baggage and carry-on should have been confiscated because of this reported fight on the plane?

Since the FBI recently put him into a psych ward for having an obsession with viewing ISIS videos, he should have been flagged a while back.

Wonder if this is another case of an authoritarian flight attendant starting trouble.

I also wonder what meds he was on. That NEVER gets reported.

I wonder if this is where the ‘I am not a Jew’ thing came from. Was he traveling with other jihadis who were ribbing him? Who gets on arguments on airplanes besides people who know each other?

I was wondering too, if he did have a fight or an argument on the flight. It makes the only sense that he took the gun the gun out off his bag, after he claimed the bag and then wennt to the bathroom to load it.
