Police Spokesman Ricardo Henson said the incident occurred around 4:30am when patrol was directed to the scene.
The Police Spokesman said the security officer identified as G.A.C told police that the suspect threatened them with the firearm and the security officers managed to disarm the customs officer before he was able to use the weapon. The firearm was turned over to police while the suspect who was still at the scene was arrested. Henson said so far the suspect who remains in police custody has refused to cooperate with police.
The Police Department is busy investigating to see if the weapon that was used to threaten the security guards is the officer's service weapon.
