Newest Update: 3:50pm 11/30- All right here's the latest: Law enforcement confirmed the name of the man as Leeland Eisenberg AKA Troy Stanley, 46. He apparently has several aliases. He has been in trouble with the law before and was pissed about being leafleted by parking enforcement for having unlocked car doors. (That would probably piss me off as well.)
Authoritah thinks he had flares strapped to him to make it look like a bomb.
Then there's this:"On the Neal Cavuto Show on Fox News, minutes ago, a Guest confirmed that Troy Stanley AKA Leeland Eisenberg, the identified Hostage Taker at the Hillary Clinton for President Campaign in Rochester, New Hampshire is a "Libertarian."
LOOKS LIKE THE HOSTAGES HAVE BEEN RELEASED.
NEWEST UPDATE: 2 hostages have been released. Turns out the guy is a local nutter with a history of mental illness. "The suspect was a well-known local man with a history of emotional issues who allegedly told his son to watch the news."
MORE BREAKING NEWS: He(the would be bomber, that is if he has a bomb) is requesting to speak to Her Lowness or he'll blow himself up. I do wonder, with his penchant for bombs..is he Muslim?
More on the Clinton hostage situation:
An armed man, possibly with a bomb, has taken people hostage at Hillary Clinton's campaign office in Rochester, N.H.
Police said a man in his 40s, with salt-and-pepper hair, is in the building and has what appears to be an explosive device strapped to his body, TV station WMUR reported.
Witness Lettie Tzizik told the station that she spoke to a woman shortly after she was released from the office by the alleged hostage-taker.
"A young woman with a 6-month or 8-mont-old infant came rushing into the store just in tears, and she said, 'You need to call 911. A man has just walked into the Clinton office, opened his coat and showed us a bomb strapped to his chest with duct tape."
Clinton's campaign confirmed to the TV station that two of its campaign workers are being held hostage.
There are several police officers positioned across the street from the office, crouched down behind cruisers with guns drawn, Boston TV station WCVB reported.
"I walked out and I immediately started running, and I saw that the road was blocked off. They told me run and keep going," Cassandra Hamilton told WCVB. She works in an office adjacent to the building.
Nearby businesses have been evacuated, and the St. Elizabeth Seaton School has been locked down.
Clinton, who is not in New Hampshire, is attending a National Democratic Committee meeting in Virginia. Presidential candidate Barack Obama also has an office in Rochester, and it has been evacuated. There were no reports of any injuries.
It was unclear how many people were being held at the Main Street facility in Rochester." -S
