When White changed course and went after a female TSA officer, Lt. Heather Slyve sprung into action. He fire three rounds at White, striking him in the face, chest and leg.
Though medical personnel offered to treat him, White refused because of his religious beliefs as a Jehovah’s Witness. He later died of his injuries.
The female TSA officer was shot in the arm during the altercation, but her wounds were non-life threatening.
