Mayra Reeson of the Phoenix Police Department.He later arrived at the scene with guns and got into an altercation with an officer.
The man, later identified as 21-year-old Cole Nenon, handed his firearms to other individuals at the airport before he approached an officer who was posted just outside the shooting scene. Nenon appeared irate and began yelling at the officer as he approached him. The officer gave Nenon commands to stop but he did not. The officer was able to take the man to the ground and placed him under arrest," police said in a release.
