Georgia: Mass shooting plot foiled at ATL airport after suspect’s family tips off authorities

OAN Staff Blake Wolf

A mass shooting plot was reportedly foiled after authorities were tipped off by relatives of a man who had been threatening to “shoot up” the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport — discovering a loaded AR-15-style rifle in his truck.

The suspect in question, 49-year-old Billy Joe Cagle, was arrested on Monday at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport after his family alerted authorities that he had been livestreaming threats and planned to go to the airport with an assault rifle.

His family alerted the local police in Cartersville, who then notified Atlanta police — allowing the airport police to intercept and arrest Cagle before any incident occurred.

After making threats during a livestream on social media, he allegedly detailed his plan to harm as many people as possible at the airport.

Cagle is being charged with terroristic threats, attempted aggravated assault, possession of a firearm by a felon, and firearm possession during the commission of a felony, according to Atlanta Police Chief Darin Schierbaum. He is a prior convicted felon who suffers from mental health issues, Atlanta Mayor Andrew Dickens noted.
