Man killed after bomb claim at airport
Official: Air marshals fired after he approached them aggressively

MIAMI, Florida (CNN) -- A 44-year-old U.S. citizen who claimed to have a
bomb was shot and killed when air marshals opened fire on a boarding
bridge at the Miami airport, several sources told CNN. No bomb was
found. 
American Airlines Flight 924 was in Miami on a stopover during a flight
from Medellin, Colombia, to Orlando, Florida, when the man, identified
as Rigoberto Alpizar, said there was a bomb in his carry-on backpack, a
Department of Homeland Security official said.
Alpizar was confronted by a team of federal air marshals, who followed
him down the boarding bridge and ordered him to get on the ground, the
official said. ( Watch the aftermath of the shooting -- 1:36)
When Alpizar appeared to reach into his backpack, he was shot and
wounded, the official said, adding that the marshals' actions were
consistent with their training. Officials said later that the man died
of his injuries. ( Watch an air marshal talk about his extensive

Upon investigation, there was no evidence that Alpizar had a bomb, an
official said.
Alpizar was traveling with a woman and had arrived in Miami on a plane
from Quito, Ecuador, federal officials said. He and the woman began
arguing before getting off the plane in Miami, two officials said.
A passenger, Mary Gardner, told WTVJ in Miami that the man ran
frantically down the aisle from the rear of the plane, arms flailing,
and that the woman accompanying him said that her husband was bipolar
and had not taken his medication, according to The Associated Press.
After he got off the plane in Miami and went through customs, he got on
the Orlando-bound plane and said he had a bomb, Air Marshal Service
spokesman Dave Adams said. (Read about air marshals being taught to
avoid risk)
Air marshals asked him to get off the plane, which he did, but when they
asked him to put his bag down, he refused, Adams said. Alpizar then
approached the marshals in an aggressive manner, at which point two or
three shots were fired, he said. 
Karlina Griffith, translating for her grandmother, witness Miriam
Delgado, told WFOR television that Delgado heard three gunshots before
people started running and "going crazy." ( Watch a witness account --

Officials could not confirm if Alpizar suffered from mental illness. His
mother-in-law told WKMG television in Orlando that he suffered from
bipolar disorder, but his brother-in-law, Steven Buechner, told CNN he
was unaware of any mental problems.
Alpizar moved to the United States from Costa Rica in 1986 and worked
for Home Depot, Buechner said. He and his wife had been in South America
since the day after Thanksgiving to help her uncle, a volunteer dentist,
Buechner said.
Alpizar and his wife lived in Maitland, Florida, just a few miles north
of Orlando, and they had no children, Buechner said. 
The killing marks the first time a federal air marshal has fired a
weapon at an individual since the program was bolstered after the
September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

 Un modo nuovo e interessante di suicidarsi.
Suicide by Cop.
Assolutamente non un modo nuovo per suicidarsi, almeno non negli USA.
