Shots Fired on Jet on Miami Tarmac
At Least One Person Is Wounded, Broadcast Reports Says

(Dec. 7) - One person was wounded Wednesday in a confrontation with a federal air marshal after an American Airlines jet landed at Miami International Airport, officials said.

A law enforcement official who spoke on condition of anonymity confirmed shots were fired from the marshal's gun. The airline said the confrontation was on a jetway.
A second federal law enforcement official, who also spoke only on condition of anonymity because the investigation still was unfolding, said the incident followed a threatening comment made by a passenger.
The passenger was wounded by at least one shot from an air marshal's weapon, the official said.
It was unclear whether the shot was fired during the course of a struggle between the marshal and the passenger or the marshal had fired the weapon to stop the passenger.
The plane had just arrived from Colombia and was headed to Orlando, the broadcast reports said. Television images showed police SWAT officers surrounding the plane.
Airport and Miami-Dade County police officials said they had no immediate comment. American Airlines officials had no immediate comment.
Martin Gonzalez, spokesman for Colombia's civil aviation agency, said he had no information regarding the incident. "The flight left normally with no problems," he told The Associated Press in Bogota.
He said he did not have a list of passengers who were aboard the plane.
Associated Press writer Mark Sherman in Washington contributed to this report.
