There was a high drama at the airport when news of the hijack came through. |

Probably the original said, "There was high drama," not "There was a high drama." It just means that it was dramatic when the news of the hijacking was announced at the airport. Everyone was shocked or worried or alarmed -- had some kind of dramatic response.
