A man has taken four people hostage at the Regional Trial Court in Taguig since about 2PM yesterday. When I passed by the court 10PM on my way home last night, a throng of onlookers were still gathered at the gates and as of 8AM today, the negotiations were still on going.

According to ABS-CBN News, The hostages, were lawyers Donna Dunuan and Frederick Ballesteros; court stenographer Liwanag Saloma and complainant Gina Ramos. Actor Robin Padilla is also being tapped to help out in negotiations. Classes were canceled in the adjacent High School and Elementary.
