JEFFERSON CITY - Portions of downtown Jefferson City are shut down due to a possible hostage situation in a government building.
State employees in the building say police officers are outside patroling the area with assault rifles. The area is locked down. Follow KOMU online and on Twitter for updates.
A viewer called KOMU to say a hostage situation took place in the Governor's Building on Madison Street. Lt. Gov. Peter Kinder is sending accounts from his Twitter account saying snipers are on the roof of the Jefferson Building and negotiators are on the scene to speak with a suspect in the hostage situation.

There was also one earlier at a school in New York. A man was holding the assistant principal hostage, but it ended peacefully and the hostage taker gave himself up.
