(CNN) — Three people were shot and another person was stabbed at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport in Arizona during a family dispute in one of the terminals on Christmas night, police said.

The incident happened at a Terminal 4 restaurant, outside the security perimeter, where responding officers found three people with gunshot wounds about 9:45 p.m. Wednesday, Phoenix police Sgt. Mayra Reeson told reporters early Thursday.

Officers later detained a juvenile female and a man in the parking garage. The man had at least one stab wound, Phoenix police said.

“I believe this was a family dispute that escalated,” Reeson said, adding that police believe all five people involved know each other.
