Three people were shot and another person was stabbed at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport in Arizona during a family dispute in one of the terminals on Christmas night, police said. The incident happened at a Terminal 4 restaurant, outside the security perimeter, where responding officers found three people with gunshot wounds about 9:45 p.m. Wednesday, Phoenix police Sgt. Mayra Reeson told reporters early Thursday. Officers later detained a juvenile female and a man in the parking garage. The man had at least one stab wound, Phoenix police said. “I believe this was a family dispute that escalated,” Reeson said. The four victims were taken to a hospital. One woman who was shot is in critical condition, while two men with gunshot wounds and the stabbing victim are all in stable condition, police said early Thursday. Police had yet to interview those detained early Thursday, and no charges had been filed, according to Reeson.
