I’m seeing reports that this has been resolved and no one was hurt, thank goodness. Really scary situation.

So i guess it wasn’t anything dangerous, maybe a false call, but who knows.

Good news that it seems it wasn’t anything dangerous after all.

I hope the perpetrators of the Swatting incident are tracked, caught, convicted, and punished to the fullest extent possible.

I’m just happy that everyone is safe, having seen the picture of the team on the roof from one of the Ubi team members that I follow, I was worried beyond words.

would it make sense to modify the title of the thread to something other than “right now” - since this was yesterday? Also - possible idea - what about changing it so it reflects that it was likely a swatting / false 911 call instead of saying hostage situation in the thread.

Also - the fact that people do this type of thing to others disgusts me. While I’m glad it wasn’t something “more serious” - and that it appears that the police who were on site did their jobs well, hopefully whoever is responsible is caught.
