I heard 13-14 employees and possibly 30 customers....??
8:49 two more have come out of the cafe
They’ve said it’s a popular tourist spot so it’s quite possible there are that many.
The fire door is still open, with police standing just outside, and I hope more hostages will come out. I don’t know if the few who have come out were allowed to leave or if they escaped. Maybe we’ll hear more soon, now that a few have come out.
