Somebody has an AD in Atlanta airport - everyone runs for their lives

[Suck My Glock]

Breaking news first came in a while ago claiming an active shooter at the airport. Then, after a short time, authorities claim is was an accidental discharge and no active shooter.

So far, no explanation of who had their booger hook on the bang switch or why.

Generally, those are "negligent" discharges, but I'll wait for more information to determine if it's an "accident".

Have a great, gun carryin', Kenpo day

FFDO or Air Marshal maybe? That would be fun to explain.

The incident occurred around 1:30 p.m. ET when a "prohibited item" was detected in a passenger's property while going through the X-ray screening at the security checkpoint, Robert Spinden, the Transportation Security Administration's federal security director for Georgia, said in a news conference. The property was flagged for a "secondary search," he said.
"During that secondary search, the passenger lunged into his property, grabbing a firearm that was located inside, which ultimately discharged," Spinden said. "The passenger then fled the security checkpoint through an adjacent exit lane with his firearm."
....
The individual whose weapon was discharged was identified as 42-year-old Kenny Wells, according to Atlanta Police Department Airport Precinct Commander Reginald L. Moorman.
"We have taken out warrants for carrying concealed a weapon at a commercial airport, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, discharging a firearm and reckless conduct," Moorman said. "We are actively pursuing this individual."

Seemed like a good plan.

He’s a felon. Shocking.

the way that I see it, this was NOT an AD...he went for the firearm, probably grabbed it with his finger in the well, and it went off. NOT an AD because he intentionally went for the pistol.

Shocking.

One of the comments to that tweet

Well, we know one thing for sure about this guy - he certainly isn't a running back for the Atlanta Falcons. Othrrwise, he would have been tackled either behind the security line or at most 3.5 yards away.
