LaGuardia being evacuated?
StreetAccount

Posted on 12/22/2003 7:27:53 AM PST by bryanbig

We subscribe to a market-information service at work. Here's what came up in the past few minutes:

Speculation that LaGuardia airport is being evacuated No verification on this rumor, which has taken the major averages off their highs. Activity on the conjecture front is likely to increase in the wake of the raised terror alert and light newsflow. Dow +11.49 points; S&P +1.02; Nasdaq +2.08

Just wondered if anyone knew more? Probably false, but wondered if anything on ny news about this.

FoxNews reporting status of major airports.

LAX, all ok, increased security, all seems normal.

No mention of LaG evacuating.

Seems like it would be easy to place a call to some vendor inside the airport for verification. "What time do you close? ... Oh. Okay, thanks. So ... everything is okay there today?"

This, of course, assumes one can reach an English speaking employee in an American airport terminal.

Sounds like someone shorted the market and started a rumor.

FOX News just reported that a late 30s PA man was arrested in MIA going through security this am. He had several weapons in his shoe? Razor blade was one of them.
