A crazy scene in Takoma Park this morning: WUSA9 reports that police surrounded a Capital One Bank at 1181 University Boulevard around 9:30 a.m. this morning, eventually shooting a man who was holding a hostage outside of the building.

UPDATE (5:15 p.m.): James J. Lee, who has been holding hostages since early this afternoon at the Discovery Communications headquarters building, was shot at about 4:48 p.m. Lee is in police custody but his condition is unknown at this time. Lee was described by Montgomery County Police Chief Tom Manger as having a “wide range of emotions” during the negotiations.
