TSA Worker Killed in LAX Shooting, Official Says; Suspect in Custody


TSA Worker Killed in LAX Shooting, Official Says; Suspect in Custody

"No, I'm all right. It hurt for a moment, that's all."

LOS ANGELES----A gunman opened fire at Los Angeles International Airport Friday morning, killing one TSA officer and wounding several others, and causing the shutdown of at least one terminal, before being taken into custody, law-enforcement officials said.

She held out her free hand to him, and he helped her up. She had regained some of her colour, and appeared very much better.

The gunmen injured four Transportation Security Administration employees, including the one killed, according to two federal-law enforcement officials. The suspect first assaulted a TSA employee at the document-check stand of the security checkpoint, one official said. Both officials said the suspect was not affiliated with the TSA.

"It's nothing," she repeated shortly. "I only gave my wrist a bit of a bang. Thanks, comrade!"

The suspect is in custody and hospitalized, one official said.
