Posting it out there incase there are people on here who know someone who lives or works in the area. My thoughts go out to those caught in the situation.

A lot of speculation according to the Beeb at the moment.
Nothing concrete but that is a lot of police and a big area to cordone off if it was not serious.0 -
Someone on the radio from the Huffington post is talking at the moment. Some of the hostages have been released and have reported someone going in there wth canisters attached to their body.
Approximately 4 hostages at the moment, according to reports.0 -
Bumping again.0

When I was at work earlier, one of the baristas from that same Starbucks came in and was telling us about it. Apparently, they didn't get to work but got paid for the day anyway. Lucky things :laugh: glad everyone's okay though. Must have been very scary.0
