At least two people were shot when a gunman opened fire inside a busy terminal at Los Angeles International Airport.

At least two people, including a TSA worker, were shot when a gunman opened fire inside a busy terminal at Los Angeles International Airport, according to a report.
The shooter apparently confronted the security worker before firing a round in the man's leg and squeezing off several shots inside Terminal 3 about 9:30 a.m., NBC Los Angeles reported.
At least one other person was shot before authorities managed to nab the suspect, who was reportedly armed with a rifle.
“There looks to be a rifle on the floor guarded by a police officer,” one person tweeted with a picture of the weapon.
It was not immediately clear how badly the two people were hurt or if any other victims were shot in the gunfire. The victims are 25 and 29, NBC LA reported.
One person was being treated for a sprained ankle.

Police ran a man out of LAX after a shooting Friday.

Brian Adamick, 43, told the Los Angeles Times he was about to board a flight for Chicago at Gate 32 when he saw a crowd of people running away from the security area.
He followed a group of people through an emergency exit outside.
“While I was on the tarmac, I heard two gunshots from the same area where the people had been running and screaming,” he told the paper.
He said he boarded a bus that came later to pick up the stranded passengers and boarded with a TSA agent bleeding from his ankle.
“I got shot, I’m fine,” the agent told him.
“It looked like it was straight out of the movies,” he told the newspaper.

Crazy stuff. The area around LAX is absolutely slammed.

That's going to **** up flights across the country.

The problem is that the horseshoe design makes it impossible to get to the other terminals. So even if the other ones are secure, you just can't get there.

California obviously needs some gun laws, then stuff like this wouldn't happen.

Shut the **** up.

Here we go again. Ban guns, ban ammunition, etc. Obama will probable weigh in to divert attention from the disaster that is Obamacare. Feinstein and Boxer will be right beside him at the podium.

Terminal 3 isn't the Tom Bradley Int'l Terminal...but the point remains that you can't get there without going past 3...and nobody's allowed in.

Anybody hear from Dane lately?

LMAO at the media. "We're hearing reports that it was a blonde-haired male wearing camo who was targeting TSA agents."
