| Passenger accidentally discharges rifle at D/FW Airport ticket counter Quote:
A deer hunter's rifle was accidentally discharged at a Delta Air Lines ticket counter at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport on Friday morning.
Airport spokeswoman Tina Sharp said the gun's owner was checking luggage for an elk-hunting trip, showing a ticket agent the weapon wasn't loaded. While the owner checked the bolt-action on the rifle, it discharged about 7 a.m.
The bullet went through a window and landed in a planter. No one was injured and airport operations weren't interrupted. |
