COLUMBUS, Ohio—One person has been shot and killed by a police officer at Port Columbus International Airport on Wednesday afternoon, according to airport officials and media reports.

The shooting took place about 1 p.m. in the passenger drop-off area of the airport, according to the airport's twitter feed.

An airport police officer, responding to a disturbance, fatally shot one person, according to the Columbus Dispatch. No one else was hurt, according to airport officials.

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.

The police officer involved in the shooting was not fired upon. The suspected vehicle of the killed person was checked for explosives and cleared.

Was the "disturbance" related to the vehicle's driver not wanting to move when as asked to move?
