Hostage Taking Going On Right Now

he was a dismissed police officer who said that he was not given due process. It was said that he will be retired in a year and because he was dismissed, no benefits will be given to him. He was demanding that he will be reinstated into service. As of now the assault team is still trying to break into the bus...let us pray that the hostages are all safe..however, no movements were observed from them even tear gas were thrown...this hostage situation maybe the worse that I have ever seen...

Oh what a horrible thing to be hearing. Why oh why do people do this..there just is no feeling anymore for human lives. If you want to kill yourself, then go ahead, but leave the rest of the world alone. Why do they have to take so many other lives with them. I'm guessing that he'll kill himself or the police will shoot him. That's just sickening and I'm glad the bus driver is safe at least. Keep us informed.

The drama is over. But the struggle for the bereaved family(families, both the suspect and the victims)had just begun. This is another sad story,so many lives wasted after the bus accident that killed 40 people last week,now here again wasted life story. And what the .....those bystanders were up to,they were even the first people to run and reach the bus instead of giving way to the medics . I don't know what to say more my heart breaks

Well, it seemed that there were live hostages that were set free. i believe this could have been avoided if there was a negotiator. some are alive. i believe there's still corruption going on the PNP but this person was also a victim of it. but that does not excuse him for killing hostages.

The hostage-taker is still alive and the most recent gunfires is assumed to be from an automatic rifle because the hostage taker is known to have been heavily armed, maybe long rifles. And there is one individual who was hit by a stray bullet from the recent gunfire.

I've seen it, and still on going. May be the hostage taker has a real reason why he did it. But, it's sad on the side of the tourist to have unforgettable and traumatic experience in the Philippines. We are still keeping our fingers cross that the remaining 15 hostages are still alive.

There is never a hostage situation that doesn't concern me deeply. I don't really know anything about this situation, but I imagine for those that were near the situation was taking place and also for those that knew people on the bus that this was a very distressing situation. I couldn't imagine to have to go through something like this myself.

For me why it is happened because his government is ruled by Satan read the 1john5:19 it is sated there so many bad thing's would be happened in this government.

that terrible news, indeed as there may be people in the world as crazy as can a person make these determinations because they were thrown off the job. This news traveled the world and unfortunately your a tragic end.

That is what an inconsiderate person and unmanly attitude. He wants something to be popular, i guess just like before..all the while children loves him coz he support that ministry where the kids being enrolled, so what's the purpose to be known on what he has done. This people is almost the same as INSANE person.

This is just awful. I can understand why he would have been upset, but no matter what you are upset about violence against others is never the answer. Where is this happening, I did not hear about it yet. Did anyone survive?
