New York, Aug 15 (IBNS): New York Police, investigating into reports of gunshots fired in the John F Kennedy International Airport has not been able to confirm the news, according to media reports.

On Sunday night, panicked travelers were seen rushing out of the airport leading the police to evacuate two terminals and close part of a major highway that runs near the airport, the New York Times reported quoting a spokesman for the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.

The NYT further reported that the Port Authority said in a statement that its preliminary investigation “does not indicate shots were fired” at the airport, but that Terminals 1 and 8 were evacuated “to be cautious.”
