ST. JOSEPH, La. (AP) — Authorities say a gunman has taken at least three people hostage at a bank in northeastern Louisiana.

It happened Tuesday afternoon at the Tensas State Bank in St. Joseph, La., southeast of Monroe.

Louisiana State Police say the man was armed with some type of automatic weapon. Superintendent Mike Edmonson says the FBI is on the way and a state police negotiator was on the scene.

Edmonson says authorities believe the three hostages are bank employees. It is unclear whether any customers were in the bank.

I'd say any event that damages gun owners, even if the media is lying, is an issue.







Plus there's people in danger.

Uh Wat? In my state they are only gun free zones if they have signs stating such. And last time I checked my bank didn't have a sign on the door.

So he's robbing a bank with a $20,000 gun.

I think the media delights in their ignorance like a dog rolls in carrion.

It's only $20k if you legally obtain it.  This is a bank robber.

I hope the employees don't get shot.

And curious to know what the "automatic weapon" is too.

A local rumor forwarded to us said that he’d made a threat to blow up the nuke plant if his demands weren’t met.

Hurry up and take my rights away!

ETA: So assuming he actually has a machine gun [doubtful], is this the second example in my lifetime of two of people using machine guns during a criminal act?
