Gunfire Rocks Plane at Miami International Airport

Dec 7, 2005 2:29 pm US/Eastern

MIAMI (CBS4 News) An American Airlines plane bound from Medellin, Colombia to Orlando with a stopover in Miami has been rocked by gunfire, apparently when two federal air marshals aboard the flight opened fire on someone a 'high ranking official with the joint terrorism task force' claims was someone they considered a threat to the aircraft.

CBS4's Brian Andrews spoke with the representative, who confirmed the shooting, as did a spokesperson for Miami International Airport. There has been no confirmation that anyone was hit by the gunfire, which was on the ground at Miami International Airport when the shots were fired.

The flight was AA flight 942 from Medillin, Colombia. It was at gate D-42 when the shots were reported.

Miami police and fire rescue crews are on the scene.

Hmmm, odd. Too many drinks during the flight?

That was my guess, Air Marshalls took someone down the hard way.

Perhaps he had a few drinks and was telling the flight attendant, he was "bombed."

Why wouldn't you believe the Feds?

And I bet you don't believe the "A spark caused the fuel tank of TWA 800 to explode" explanation either.

The Fox News reporterette is referring to the Air Marshal as a "Fire" Marshal...

OMG...That is Classic!! LMAO

I have to watch these events with the following thought bouncing around my head:

"Don't believe anything you hear, remember the Convention Center body count."

This is the problem when news organizations squander their credibility. It's a hell of a thing to get it back.

A federal air marshall fired shots on an American Airlines airplane at Miami International Airport, according to broadcast reports.

Any reports of people being sucked out of the fuselage?
