Man holds 5 hostage in Virginia post office

Quote:
An armed disabled man was holding five people hostage nearly four hours after his takeover of a Virginia post office on Wednesday, the town's mayor said. The man entered the Wytheville, Virginia, post office about 2:30 p.m. and fired a shot, Mayor Trent Crewe said. No one has been hurt, but three postal workers and two customers are being held hostage, he said.

Another "gun-free" zone.

I wonder if any of the customers & workers have their gun in the car, but they didn't take it in because of the dumb Post Office rules?
