Atac armat pe un aeroport din Florida, soldat cu 5 morti si mai multi raniti. Barbatul care a deschis focul, prins de politie
Autoritatile americane au anuntat ca cinci persoane si-au pierdut viata, in vreme ce alte opt au fost ranite dupa ce un atacator inarmat a deschis focul in zona de colectare a bagajelor din aeroportul international Lauderdale-Hollywood.
Politistii l-au impuscat si retinut pe atacator, care purta in timpul atacului armat un tricou cu franciza Star Wars, transmite Reuters, conform news.ro.
Martorii sustin ca atacatorul este un tanar in varsta de aproximativ 20 de ani, iar acesta a fost impuscat de politisti in timp ce incerca sa isi reincarce arma.
Pasagerul John Schlicher a precizat ca atacatorul era un ”tanat slabut” si a intreptat arma direct spre pasagerii care asteptau sa isi ridice bagajele pe aeroportul Lauderdale.

De asemenea, atacatorul nu a spus niciun cuvant in timp ce tragea la intamplare in pasageri.
”Mi-am acoperit capul si am inceput sa ma rog”, a declarat Schlicher.
Acesta a explicat ca sotia sa a acordat primul ajutor unui barbat impuscat in timpul atacului armat, iar soacra sa a utilizat un pulover pentru a opri sangerarea unei persoane care a decedat.
Atacatorul si-a reincarcat arma o singura data, insa martorii nu pot preciza cate gloante au fost trase in incinta aeroportului Lauderdale.
