Suspect shot and in custody.

Multiple victims.

I saw on the news a TSA guy walking with a bloody left hand.

Thanks for the link. Sad news about the TSA person and the several wounded.

Anything about whether the gunman acted alone or not?

They are saying that a TSA officer was shot and killed. The suspect was also shot and killed. They are waiting for a press conference to begin.

The FAA has grounded all flights at LAX for the moment.

Suspect was a TSA employee...and is dead.

Mouthbreathers, all of them.

Used to be Postal workers, now the media will have to come up with a new term.

Uh, no. The suspect is a 23 year old about whom very few details have been released.

The TSA agent is the victim, and was shot and killed.

I'm sure they'll have to check out all the bags that were left just to make sure it's not a diversion to sneak something onboard a plane. What a mess!
