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.

“I wonder if it’s somehow related to Cuba?”

Cuba or Club GITMO?

According to un-named sources, his name is Esteban “mohamed” Santiago. His friends call him Moe.

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)


One question that would clear that up: Was he crying?

Maybe but the guy is from NJ, but has a checked pistol in CANADA? Something stinks.

Anyone unarmed in public, in a CCW state, is a fool.

Baggage claim area would be full of people who just got out of the no guns area. Can't carry past the TSA area even with a permit

If confirmed, that ought to settle it. Are they still saying there are other shooters?

Could be either or.

Lot of mulsims come in from south of the boarder. They look like south American Indians so they blend in quite well. So the passed himself off as “Esteban Santiago” this is why I asked is this his real name or Sith Lord name? He could be a Muzzie he could be out to get Trump or both. Who freaking knows.

Right now just weave a rope and hang him at dawn.

Having a non-Arabic name does not preclude any “religious” ties.

Un-confirmed sources are saying the other shooters are the last remnants of the Clown scare. Looks like this will allow us to round up the last of the brightly colored, podiatric challenged monsters.

Just waiting to see if any of this pans out to be true.

“In the time of Twitter”...

“Esteban Santiago;@PoppaSawsa5
I’m not the [****]ing shooter. The guy is 165 LB and 5’7. I’m at work working.”

LOL! Poor guy.
