Our reporter who can see into the cafe from Ch 7 newsroom estimates there are perhaps 10 hostages still inside.

The city was pretty much closed in certain areas and was somewhat quiet. Didn't expect it to still continue with this ridiculous situation.

Honestly how could it be fake? I'm not video analyst but it seems pretty real wow

I know peri you might get angry Nd I'm sorry. But I really need you to confirm if you can. The woman you were referring to earlier wearing the white and black shirt holding up the flag in the window, is she the same as the one in the youtube video? (If you do know her). This would indicate if the video is real. If you aren't comfortaBle doing this I agree and that's fine

The officials are urging people to not spread the videos and publicize the terrorist's demand.

It's real.

Just made a comment on a reddit thread, and got DOWNVOTED to hell for it. I'm dozens of hate mail for posting it... so I'm taking that as a yes they are real.

People don't want the videos to be spread as it's giving the terrorist attention with his demands.

An unverified video is circling on twitter of a hostage making demends on behalf of the person holding them captive.
Please remember that this video has not been verified, and just because it looks convincing does not mean it is genuine.
