Just heard a caller on the radio saying there’s some kind of chaos going down at LAX. Cars jumping fences, money blowing down the street, and bodies cut in half. Callers are saying a cop is dead and this might have started as a robery turned hit and run. More soon.
More details are up at ABC Local and Officer.com and a slideshow of images is up on NBC4.
