Memorial Held for Killed TSA Agent

LAX honored fallen TSA officer Gerardo Hernandez.

LAX officials held a memorial service Wednesday in honor of the TSA employee killed in a shooting at the airport last week.
 
 Gerardo Hernandez, 39, was shot when a lone gunman entered the airport with the intent of killing as many TSA officers as possible.
 
The airport flew in a U.S. National Honors Flag and had a water cannon salute to commemorate Hernandez's life during the memorial.
 
A motorcade also circled the airport to honor the husband and father of two.
 
Investigators say Hernandez was shot by Paul Anthony Ciancia who faces charges for the murder of a federal officer, and committing violence at an international airport.
