BREAKING: Discovery Channel Hostage Situation Over, NBC Reports That Gunman James Lee Is Dead

It appears that everything ended well at the headquarters for Discover Channel as police are reporting that all of the hostages have been rescued and that the gunman, James Lee, has been taken into custody. Meanwhile, NBC is reporting that Lee may actually now be dead which would explain the officer in the video below’s use of the term “deadly force.” Obviously there will be more forthcoming on this story but, as of now, the good news seems to be that, apparently, none of the hostages were seriously injured.
