Freeper Bunnyslippers was one of the hostages. She said the perp was wounded while still holding them in the front of the store. She said he was cold and shivering from shock and blood loss I guess.
The gunman from the beginning said he wanted to surrender even though he held us at gunpoint.
He asked for the handcuffs to be thrown into the store so he could handcuff himself and walk out.
As it turned out, he cuffed himself and had the hostages walk close to him as he came out so the police would not shoot.
It was very much like when the police tank pulled up, he had us all sit together, touching so that if the police shot from the tank it would insure us as well as him,.
