I hope for a successful outcome; it sounds like a domestic situation. I am more concerned about how a man in a car managed to drive onto an airport runway. Where are the anti-terrorism precautions and security measures? If it can be done with just a car, and it is a major international airport, it does not exactly inspire confidence.
The man has surrendered to the police. It might take a moment to return back to normal operations.
