Default LAX Just Shut Down - 09-05-2004, 11:18 AM

Not much information on what's going on. The AP reported that there was an incident at a screening station at one of the international terminals. Anyone heard anything else?

Okay.. they confirmed the entire thing is shut down for a security breech. There was an explosion at the airport.

Okay.. there was an explosion at Tom Bradley International Airport that closed down the neighboring Terminals 6, 7 and 8.

Following this, there was a second incident which has not yet been disclosed, but it resulted in shutting down the ENTIRE airport, all terminals. No flights departing, but incoming flights are still being allowed to land.

CNN has it in their little breaking news thing at the bottom. No one has any information on what's happening, though, so they're staying with the hurricane footage.

They confirmed that the airport is being evacuated, though.
