One Dead In Miami Airport Shooting
MIAMI, Dec. 7, 2005
(CBS/AP) A federal air marshal shot and killed a man Wednesday at Miami International Airport, CBS News' Bob Orr reports.
The incident occurred after American Airlines Flight 924 from Medellin, Colombia, landed in Miami on its way to Orlando.
The plane was parked at Gate 42 in the D concourse when, according to federal officials, one of the passengers on the plane got up, started running through the plane screaming that he had an explosive with him, perhaps in a backpack.
At that point, federal air marshals tried to intervene. When the man failed to stop there was a pursuit that then led on to the jetway. At least one shot was then apparently fired.
One federal official told Orr the man wasn't acting right, that he was acting a little bit crazy and started spouting all kinds of things.
It is important to note that this is the first time that a federal air marshal has discharged a gun on a U.S. passenger plane.
