At the Bishop International Airport in Flint, Michigan today, Officer Jack Neville, a member of the police force at the airport itself, was approached by a man and was then viciously stabbed in the neck. It is unclear what the motive is for the attack, but many people witnessed the horrible scene.
Ken Brown told The Flint Journal he was dropping off his daughter at the airport and saw the officer bleeding from his neck. He says he saw a man detained by police and a knife on the ground.
“The cop was on his hands and knees bleeding from his neck,” Brown said. “I said they need to get him a towel.”
The officer is listed in stable condition at a local hospital, while the suspect has been taken into custody. Not many details of the attack have been made public yet, but they will unfurl as the hours roll on.
Cherie Carpenter, who was awaiting a flight to Texas to see her new grandchild, tells Flint TV station WJRT she saw the attacker being led away in handcuffs. She described the man in custody as appearing “blank, just totally blank.”
Neville was a lieutenant with the airport’s police department, said Young, who met with the victim’s family and at the hospital today.
“As expected, they are shook up. They are concerned,” he told MLive.
The FBI is the lead agency on the scene. State police troopers, along with ATF agents, are also at the airport investigating.

A White House official confirmed to Fox News that President Trump has been briefed on the stabbing.
“As expected, they are shook up. They are concerned,” he told MLive.

Updates will continue to roll in but as it stands right now, there is no determination as to whether or not this is terror related. My gut says, “yes.”
