At least 1 person shot dead at Will Rogers airport

-

A man who was shot at Will Rogers World Airport in Oklahoma City has died.

Police officer Megan Morgan said the man died Tuesday afternoon after being shot earlier in the day.

The man’s name and other informatio­n was not released.

The airport was closed by police after the shooting and the only aircraft that has been allowed to land is a Federal Transfer Center aircraft carrying federal prisoners to a transfer center on airport property.

At least one person was shot near a parking garage at the airport on Tuesday, prompting city officials to close the airport and order people inside a sprawling terminal to seek shelter.

Video from a television station helicopter showed what appeared to be a pool of blood near the bottom of a ramp leading from the airport’s departure area.

Two ambulances and a firetruck stood by.
