ChosenOne Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 (edited) DEVELOPING: Police in Maryland are responding to a hostage situation after reports that a man with a handgun entered the Discovery Channel headquarters building in Silver Spring and fired at least one shot. An official with the Montgomery County Police Department confirmed to Fox News that a man with an explosive device is holding at least one person hostage in the lobby of the building. A Discovery employee reportedly told WJLA-TV that the building, located in suburban Washington, D.C., was on lockdown. The employee also said she thought she had heard five or six gunshots.The suspect, identified by police as an Asian male, has "some sort of device on him that may be explosive in nature," Friz told the station. Some witnesses reported that the man fired a shot before declaring, "Nobody is going anywhere," according to police. Authorities have so far not confirmed how many shots were fired. Employees at the building were told to take cover in locked offices, according to local press accounts. Children at a day care center located inside the Discovery Building were reportedly safely evacuated to a nearby McDonald's restaurant. Discovery Communications LLC operates cable and satellite networks in the U.S. including The Discovery Channel, TLC and Animal Planet. http://www.foxnews.com/us/2010/09/01/maryland-police-respond-hostage-situation-man-gun-enters-building/ CNN has it on right now for the ones who want to see it live.
