NEW YORK (CNN) -- Three suspects have been arrested in an alleged terror plot targeting New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport, a law enforcement official told CNN.
A former JFK Airport employee was among those arrested, the official said.
The FBI and the Joint Terrorist Task Force are to hold a news conference at 1 p.m. to provide details of the arrests and an indictment.
Authorities believe the plot was aimed at ground operations, not airplane flights, the official said.
The official described the suspects as "al Qaeda wannabes" and said one of the suspects is from the Caribbean region.
The case has been developing for a long time, the official said.
