Shit just got real.
This is so sad. What's worse is that when things like this happen it plants the idea into someone elses head and you get copycats

I wonder too, why the Discovery Channel. Wonder if it's an ex employee? Does OP know anything?
FBI and ATF have been dispatched; at least one shot has been fired by the subject. A bomb squad has also been deployed.
No confirmation on whether there is an actual explosive device, or what the guy wants. It was said that the man looked to be of Asian origin.
Now let's just hope the cops can kill this bastard without anyone innocent getting hurt.
