JFK Terminal Evacuated Due To "Gunshots" That Were Probably People Cheering For Usain Bolt

Police evacuated John F. Kennedy Airport’s Terminal 8 Sunday night after they received reports that shots had been fired. After a preliminary investigation, cops now say there was no shooting—with one official saying “ clapping and banging” by people watching the Olympics may have been misinterpreted as gunfire.
The Port Authority told NBC the initial call came in “around 9:30"—or roughly one minute after Usain Bolt finished winning his third-straight gold medal in the 100 meters. The reports of a shooting spread like wildfire on Twitter, with authorities hesitant to confirm anything; they evacuating the terminal for precautionary reasons, while the FAA placed a brief ground stop at the airport.
