The parking deck at Raleigh-Durham International Airport has reopened Tuesday night after police responded to a public safety incident, according to a tweet from airport officials.

Travelers were asked to stay inside the terminals, and arriving guests were rerouted to the Economy 3 parking lot, according to airport officials.

Guests can now return to their vehicles because the search has been completed. There were unconfirmed reports of a person with a gun in the parking deck, but officials have not commented on that.

This is a developing story. Please return to AJC.com throughout the day for updates.
