PREVIOUS AIRPORT INCIDENTS
This is not the first breach attempt at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport within the past year.
On Oct. 30, police said Fabian Leon tried to breach the security area. A Good Samaritan said he was standing in line at the main security checkpoint when he saw Leon running full speed toward the X-Ray machines.
“I just grabbed him, picked him up, and slammed him,” Mark Thomas told Channel 2’s Courtney Francisco in November.
Earlier that month, investigators say Billy Joe Cagle plotted a mass shooting at the airport on Oct. 20. Law enforcement said suspect’s family alerted them to his plan.
Leon’s next hearing is set for May and Cagle’s next hearing is in June.
