Police emergency response teams have responded to the Discovery Channel headquarters in Silver Spring, Maryland with the reports of a man with a gun and possible explosives strapped to his body.

I have some friends that work for the Discovery Channel who work in this building. I'm praying that this situation ends safely....and soon.
