Man With Bomb takes Hostages at Hillary Clintons Campaign office..

Just saw this on the news..


Quote:
A man claiming to have a bomb has taken a number of people hostage at a Hillary Clinton campaign office in Rochester, New Hampshire, police say.
Mrs Clinton is at a Democratic campaign event in Virginia and is not involved in the siege.

Unconfirmed reports say two hostages have been seized.

The area has been evacuated and police are sending a tactical bomb unit to the scene, according to a New Hampshire police spokesman.

Hostage negotiators have arrived at the scene, police said.

One local shopkeeper described how a witness came in to raise the alarm.

Lettie Tzizik told local television station WMUR TV: "A young woman... came rushing into the store just in tears, and she said: 'You need to call 911 - a man has just walked into the Clinton office, opened his coat and showed us a bomb strapped to his chest with duct tape'."

Re: Man With Bomb takes Hostages at Hillary Clintons Campaign office..

MSNBC is reporting that the main demand of the hostage taker is to speak directly to Hillary, interesting how she will handle this. If she handles this well it could certainly give her a boost in the polls and disprove the old "Democrats suck on issues of security and terrorism".

Although Fox is reporting that the Secret Service has "taken control of Hillary" and that she will not even be talking to this guy on the phone.

Re: Man With Bomb takes Hostages at Hillary Clintons Campaign office..

Oh, paste this link into VLC Player or WMP/whatever to watch a live feed from a news copter without the horrible commentary: mms://a717.l2334524716.c23345.g.lm.akamaistream.net/D/717/23345/v0001/reflector:24716

Camera man keeps zooming in on the swat team and the snipers moving into position. Awesome.

Aye, it's the feed from the copter rather than a TV feed with commentary.

The local news station has a feed available here:

Got a camera on the street looking along, and SWAT seem to be suiting up.

Aye but he's black and has a muslim name. You may as well vote for a gypo

although gypo is a highly derogatory claim I was once called a gypo on TalkSport so I reckon I have the right to use it in a self deprecating manner
