FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Jan. 6 (UPI) — A gunman opened fire at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport on Friday, shooting at least nine people and killing one, Broward County, Fla., officials said.
Law enforcement sources told NBC News they arrested one suspect after the shooting near the baggage claim area of Terminal 2. Delta Air Lines flies out of Terminal 2.
This has terrorist attack written all over it, since the target was an airport.
Probably caused by either Russian agents or people upset with Trump’s dangerous rhetoric.
Just flew out of there on Wed. afternoon.
He was looking for the Allou Snackbar.
The longer it goes without the suspect being identified as a white man, the more likely it is that it was a Muslim or an Amish guy.
I’m afraid members of the admin-elect were targeted.
A terrorist does not have to get a bomb on board a plane. They could use guns and gasoline to wipe out the airline passengers as they are bunched up together in the airport security lines or at the baggage carousel.
CNN waiting on the nationality of the shooter before deciding how to spin it.
I haven’t been to that airport. Can you enter the baggage claim area without going through TSA screening?
Ari Fleischer was there
I know at DFW Airport , you can go to baggage claim without any security checks.
I’m at the Ft. Lauderdale Airport. Shots have been fired. Everyone is running.
