The airport in Fort McMurray, Alta., was evacuated Friday afternoon after an incident, MLA Mike Allen told CBC News.
He said police have a person in custody, but are asking people to stay away from the area.
There is no word yet on when people will be allowed back into the building.
The last Friday before Christmas is usually one of the busiest, most chaotic days of the year at airports.
