Off Topic Shooting at Fort Lauderdale airport

Several dead and the gunman has been arrested.

Unlikely to be terrorism as they don't usually get captured.

 

watching in live on CNN right now and something else going on. Or maybe no-one knows what is going on?

 

This is the shooter, apparently.

He looks like my GP.

 

Don't think that baldy dude, is the shooter. They are saying he's been arrested in connection with a possible second incident.

 

Its one ****ed up world we're in at the minute.

 

****ing hell

Another shooter is just opening fire now!

 

Gun Lobby to blame.

 

USA still living in the wild west days. And they think the world should live their way. If that is the culprit in the picture, looks like one of those disgruntled ex employee types.

 

• Five people are dead and at least 8 others were injured and transported to a nearby hospital, according to the Broward Sheriff's Office.

• The shooting suspect has been identified as 26-year-old Esteban Santiago who was reportedly wearing a Star Wars T-shirt and carrying a military ID. He was publicly identified by U.S. Senator Bill Nelson of Florida.

• Broward County Commissioner Chip LaMarca said the shooter was a passenger on a Canadian flight and had checked the gun in his luggage. The gunman loaded the firearm in a bathroom after retrieving it at baggage claim, LaMarca said.

• The shooter lay on the floor “spread-eagle” and waited for police to apprehend him after running out of ammunition, witnesses said.

• The suspect was taken into custody without incident and is being interrogated by FBI agents and sheriff’s deputies, said Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel.

• Esteban Santiago was reportedly born in New Jersey in 1990 and had been living in Alaska, according to public documents.

• Authorities say officers are conducting an active search of the airport after receiving unconfirmed reports of additional gunfire.

 

Charlton Heston should be used as a target.

 

The Yanks will never give up their guns.
It's ingrained in their culture.
Let them get on with it.

 

Let them sort themselves out. World would be a better place.

 

Apparently this guy had been suffering with mental health issues and had been behaving erratically for months. He even turned up at an FBI office acting strangely.

Yet he was still allowed to check in his gun and ammunition, in his luggage, because it is perfectly legal to do so over there

 

WOW.

This guy had severe mental health issues, walked into the FBI office and told them he was hearing voices and was being instructed by the government to kill. They had a chat with him and give him his ****ing gun back a month later. Unfuckingbelievable
