The Discovery Channel's MythBusters hosts are among those evacuated from Los Angeles International Airport after a shooting in Terminal 3.

Host Grant Imahara tweeted: "I was in the Virgin lounge upstairs. Saw everyone pour out of the terminal onto the tarmac. Then I heard shots fired outside."

Before the incident Imahara tweeted that he was "headed to Delaware for Punkin Chunkin this weekend!!! Danger! Excitement! Flying squash!! @ScienceChannel"

Shortly after he tweeted: "Virgin promptly locked the lounge doors. About ten minutes later, LAPD armed with automatic weapons arrived to secure the area."

Tory Belleci, another host of the show, has been tweeting from the airport and including pictures.
