LAX Shooting

Recommended Posts

A GUNMAN has opened fire with an assault rifle at Los Angeles' international (LAX) airport, killing a security agent and wounding seven people, officials say.

Several Australians have been caught up in the horrific shooting, which happened at LAX's terminal 3 at 9.20am (3.20am AEDT), just moments before a Virgin Australia flight from Sydney landed.

Qantas, Virgin Australia, United and Delta all use Los Angeles International Airport for Australian flights.

Panicked travellers scrambled to escape after the lone suspect, identified by the FBI Los Angeles field office as Paul Anthony Ciancia, 23, a resident of Los Angeles, pulled out the gun and began shooting, walking through a security checkpoint before being stopped in an exchange of fire with police.
