Esteban Santiago and was reportedly carrying military identification.
Santiago - reportedly 26 years old and from New Jersey but lived in Alaska for some time -appeared alone in the Terminal 2 baggage claim area wearing a Star Wars shirt.
Witnesses say he appeared to randomly target his victims.
“He had what looked like a 9mm and emptied his entire clip."

Esteban Santiago ID’d as gunman in Fort Lauderdale airport shooting: Report
The gunman in the mass shooting at the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport that left five dead and at least eight injured Friday afternoon has reportedly been identified as Esteban Santiago.
Sen. Bill Nelson, speaking on CNN, identified the gunman as Esteban Santiago and said the man was carrying a military ID card. The Florida Democrat said he received a briefing from Transportation Security Administration Administrator Peter Neffenger, who indicated authorities were fairly certain of the man’s name but that they were not sure if the ID card he was carrying was authentic. The gunman was injured and is in custody, Mr. Nelson said.

Law enforcement said he was found with an active military ID and is an American citizen, born in New Jersey. Previous known addresses include Penuelas, Puerto Rico and Anchorage, Alaska.
They add that in November 2016, he walked into an FBI office in Anchorage claiming that he was being forced to fight for ISIS. He was sent to a psychiatric hospital.
In 2011 or 2012, he was investigated by Homeland Security Investigations for child porn. Three weapons and a computer were seized, but there was not enough evidence to prosecute, according to law enforcement sources.

BREAKING : Florida Shooter Wrote About Islam on Jihadi Forums
Breaking News By Amy Moreno January 6, 2017
Ft Lauderdale shooting suspect Esteban Santiago reportedly lived within walking distance of a Mosque in Anchorage, Alaska.
Also, he reportedly walked into an Anchorage, Alaska FBI office and said he was being “forced” to fight for ISIS.
Now, we’re learning he wrote about ISLAM on Jihadi forums.
Lt. Col. Candis Olmstead, a spokeswoman for the Alaska Department of Military and Veterans Affairs, said Santiago was formerly a member of the Alaska Army National Guard. He received a general discharge Aug. 16, 2016, for unsatisfactory performance, Olmstead said.
He started with the Puerto Rico National Guard in 2007
Note the ISIS finger salute and the salafist style of facial hair....
Looks like the same guy to me...
Let's look at what we know...
Family members of the 26-year-old New Jersey-born man identified by law enforcement sources as the Fort Lauderdale Airport shooter had served for years in the National Guard and was recently hospitalized in Alaska after "something got to him."
He received a general discharge from the Alaska Army National Guard on Aug. 16, 2016, for unsatisfactory performance
"He is a regular person, spiritual, a good person" and family members said that there was no PTSD diagnosis or other post-Iraq
issues.
http://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local...lowTwt_NYBrand
Something "Got to him" and he became fixated with Islam. His military performance was way below standards, already, as it is not very easy to get anything less than an honorable discharge ( you really have to be screwing up ). Maybe, that "something" was very close to where he lived? Especially, for someone that family described as "spiritual"?
Ft Lauderdale Shooter, Esteban Santiago Lived Within Walking Distance From Only Mosque in Alaska
The suspect showed up several months ago at the FBI office in Anchorage, law enforcement officials told CNN. He was interviewed and said he was hearing voices in his head, including some telling him to join ISIS
http://www.cnn.com/2017/01/06/us/for...ent/index.html
Law enforcement sources say in November 2016, Santiago walked into an FBI office in Anchorage and told agents he was being forced to fight for ISIS and was under CIA mind control which was forcing him to watch ISIS videos
http://www.cbsnews.com/news/shots-fi...rdale-airport/
So... Whatever made him snap and decide to kill innocent people, whether he was crazy, had PTSD ( even though undiagnosed ), was on pharmaceuticals, whatever...
There is no doubt that Islam played a contributing role...
Update: Ft Lauderdale Shooter, Esteban Santiago Lived Within Walking Distance From Only Mosque in Alaska
http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2017...mosque-alaska/
We received a tip that according to voter rolls, Esteban Santiago lived within 1.6 miles of Alaska’s only mosque.
The below photo allegedly of Esteban Santiago, wearing what possibly could be a keffiyeh, a scarf often worn by Palesitnian Arabs, has appeared on Twitter. Some unconfirmed reports say it is believed he posted on a forum for downloading Islamic jihadi videos in 2007.
CBS national and local:
- Full name Esteban Santiago Ruiz
- Resident of Alaska.
- Investigated by the FBI two weeks ago for downloading Isis videos, and taken to a mental facility at that time.
More rumors posted elsewhere:
In November he was allegedly 5150’ed by the FBI and had 3 guns taken. Did they give them back or did he buy a new one. He could never pass the background check with a 5150 on his record.
… On a different tact, I'd like to know which "meds" this guy was on, dosing, level of medical monitoring and whether he'd just quit taking them or not. We're seeing a cross over between the "lone crazy gunman" model and the "self radicalized" Islamist....
