Man holds hostages in a Clinton office
From Times Wire Reports
A distraught man wearing what appeared to be a bomb walked into a Hillary Rodham Clinton campaign office in Rochester and demanded to speak to the candidate about access to mental health care. The hostage situation lasted nearly six hours until he surrendered.
Shortly after releasing the last of five hostages unharmed, Leeland Eisenberg, 46, walked out of the office, put down a bomb-like package and was immediately surrounded by police officers. He was held on charges of kidnapping and reckless conduct.
