Police say a phone call from the suspect's family and the hard work of officers may have stopped the man from taking dozens of lives.

Carterville's police captain describes what happened Monday morning that led to the arrest of a man who claimed he was going to "shoot up" Atlanta's airport.

Moments after receiving a report of a man who threatened to shoot up the world’s busiest airport while livestreaming, Atlanta Police Officer Myesha Banks spotted a man matching his description in the crowd.

Federal agents have taken over the custody of Billy Joe Cagle, the man accused of threatening a mass shooting at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport.

Officers at the Atlanta airport say they seized more than 160 pounds of ketamine from travelers in just two days.
