Shots were fired in the vicinity of Terminal 2 of Mexico City's international airport on Friday morning with at least two people injured and one suspect arrested, according to the capital's police chief.
Chief Omar Garcia Harfuch said in a post on Twitter that the two injured were "out of danger," adding that the detained suspect had also been shot and injured.
The incident was likely sparked by a robbery attempt in which a bodyguard fired shots in order to repel an alleged robber on a motorbike, according to officials. It was not immediately clear if the suspect or others also fired weapons.
Images published by outlet Telediario showed a black SUV with bullet holes in the windshield and a crumpled motorcycle in front of it, just a short distance from the terminal's normally bustling traffic circle where passengers arrive at and leave the airport.
