Flights were grounded Monday at Love Field Airport in Dallas, Texas, after a woman fired multiple shots into the air inside the terminal, police said.
The 37-year-old woman was shot and wounded by a police officer after he fired a pistol at the ceiling, Dallas Police Chief Eddie Garcia told reporters.
Garcia told reporters that the woman got out of a vehicle at the airport, went into a bathroom, came out wearing different clothes than she was wearing, and opened fire in the air.
She was shot in the "lower extremities" by a police officer and was later arrested and taken to hospital, the police chief said.
No one else was injured, although the shooting caused panic at the airport as dozens of passengers fled for safety.
The Federal Aviation Administration issued a "ground stop" alert, temporarily halting flights at the airport.
