A Central Michigan University student was hurt while taking cover during the Fort Lauderdale airport shooting.

Senior Tricia Dwyer was injured after falling down a flight of cement stairs while she was running to find a safe place with her mother and brother.

Tricia says a security guard pointed to a nearby door that had a flight of stairs by the planes where she and her family took cover.

After about three hours, travelers were moved to the other side of the airport where authorities began to escort people to safely get their personal belongings.
