Sydney: Australia's busiest airport was briefly thrown into chaos on Wednesday when a police officer's gun was fired as authorities tried to arrest a suspect.
Australian Federal Police Acting Commander Scott Raven said authorities were informed the man was acting "suspiciously" at Sydney Airport's domestic check-in counter.
When police attempted to speak to the man inside the terminal, the 41-year-old man "became verbally and physically aggressive", resulting in his arrest.
During the tussle, a police firearm was "unintentionally discharged", Raven said.
Footage released by local media showed an officer checking his rifle as two other people pinned a man to the ground.
