Hostage Situation near where I live

I have some friends in Binghamton.
That's some crazy stuff. I wonder what caused the incident at the Civic Association. Waiting for details.
 
Yep - I have been listening it to the local radio this morning (WNBF-1290). Scary stuff.

Sad day 🙁 My thoughts go out to the families affected.
 
**EDIT**

Quick update - news station just saying "some deaths" have occured


A local forum has unconfirmed reports of at least 4, but as many as 12 killed 🙁

OMG - this is terrible!
 
A bit off-topic, but I always cringe a bit when I see it called "Binghampton" rather than "Binghamton" (referring to the text in the link).

Oh and I thought that four people were just shot but not dead?
 
I was just on lunch break and saw it on the news. Couldn't fucking believe it! My brother (duragezic here) lives there.

Edit: Or maybe he lives in Enicott. But it's close I believe.
 
just had a radio update with a local reporter on scene talking to a retired police official. He said he cannot make a specific comment to confirm any number of casualties, but just commented "It is bad, very bad" 🙁
This is awful!
 
I was listening to the local radio station just now and apparently 4 are confirmed dead with anywhere between 20-40 hostages still in the building. 2 more have been rushed to Wilson Hospital for emergency surgery.

He lives in the same apartment complex as I do in the good area of Endicott, he's safe 😉.

Yeah, someone here lives right across the street and his neighbor said the death toll is up to 13 🙁.

That's what I heard as well from someone locally.
 
From my local sources:

"Information coming from a eye witness that as many as three Asain males have benn taken into custody and that the hostages are now safe."
 
Wow, we have more people than I thought from this area. Why haven't we ever had a meet up? We could go to all those places around here (?)
