Crazy: Man Armed With A Machete & Molotov Cocktails Attacks TSA Agents In New Orleans!

Richard White, 62, of Kenner is alleged to have approached a security checkpoint, spraying agents and travelers with wasp killer before drawing a machete from his waistband and chasing a security agent.

White, who is believed to be a former taxi driver, was shot three times by a sheriff's office lieutenant who was stationed at the concourse.

"We don't know what his motive was," Col. John Fortunato of the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office said.

Authorities said they believed White has worked as a taxi driver. A sheriff's news release said he had "a few minor arrests." Fortunato said investigators were continuing Saturday to check into his employment and criminal history.
