Security lockdown at YVRr
Currently stuck at the gate at US arrivals. They are saying serious threat. Any ideas what is going in?

No information was shared, but they let us off after about 15 minutes. The US and international areas still had people although not crowded. The customs guy reopened international connections as we came through and referenced the closure, but gave no details. MLL agent in intl saw no impact.

I heard at least one announcement of flight delay because of the incident.

Looks like my flight is still on schedule.
