This is my neck of the woods. Local news is reporting 2 to 4 people shot. I haven’t seen anything about anyone being killed yet.

If they are being held 'hostage'; then what is the demand here. . .(other than 'freedom'; given reports of deaths here).

Unconfirmed 12 dead, high powered rifle used. Can't be. The state of New York has a law banning assault rifles.
