5 Dead, 8 Injured in Shooting at Fort Lauderdale Airport, Florida

At least five people were killed in a shooting at the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport in Florida, official sources told ABC News.

A suspect is in custody, a senior federal official said.

The Broward County sheriff said there were five deaths and eight people were injured.

The airport said the incident was in the baggage claim area at Terminal 2, which was evacuated.

The U.S. Transportation Security Administration said the incident occurred in a public area, not a secure area. The terminal is being repopulated and all passengers are being re-screened, the TSA said.

Passengers were seen huddled on the tarmac with their luggage.

Photos also showed the blood-stained tarmac.

President Obama was briefed on the shooting, said National Security Council spokesperson Ned Price.

Donald Trump tweeted about the incident, saying, "Thoughts and prayers for all."

The airport said all services are temporarily suspended.

Flights more than 50 miles away from the airport are being diverted.
