Two American Servicemembers Killed in Frankfurt Shooting

Two Servicemembers Also Injured in Shooting at Frankfurt Airport

A gunman opened fire inside a bus carrying U.S. servicemembers at the airport in Frankfurt, Germany, today, killing two members of the U.S. Air Force, a U.S. official said.

One of the dead was the bus driver. Two other American servicemembers were reportedly seriously injured in the incident.

The servicemembers were not based in Germany but were transiting through, another U.S. official told ABC News, and it appears the gunman was on the bus when he shot at them. There is no information yet on whether this was an airport shuttle or one specifically for U.S. military personnel.

German police have arrested a 21-year-old suspect from Kosovo.

The incident remains under investigation and it is unclear if the shooting was related to terrorism....
