Only employees are inside, no customers.

No it is not. There are people being held at gunpoint by some thug a-hole hoping they don't die today for having to gone to their teller job making $10 per hour.

I see on twitter that the foiled robbery is not being confirmed, only the hostage situation and that the suspect gained entry before it opened.

Diedra RodriguezVerified account ?@deerodriguez Reporter says the hostage suspect gained entry of the Alabama Credit Union before business hours. Unclear how.

Probably gained entry by forcing the front door open by gun

Isn't that the whole point of keeping the doors locked before and after business hours?

First tweeted at 6:52 am. I'm surprised there were people in the office.

Called a morning glory takeover. Ambush the first employee to arrive and take them hostage one by one. There's supposed to be a signal that only employees know but apparently it didn't work like it was supposed to.

It's real. UA Alerts has been blowing up my text and voicemail inbox.

Don't think this is a robbery. There are lots of easier targets if someone wanted to rob a bank. That's just my conjecture, mind you.
