    Police: Hostages taken at Clinton campaign office

    Police respond to ongoing situation at Clinton campaign office in New Hampshire

    CNN affiliate WMUR reports two people being held; woman and baby freed

    Sen. Clinton not in the state

    (CNN) -- Two people are being held hostage by an armed man at Sen. Hillary Clinton's campaign office in Rochester, New Hampshire, police said Friday.

    Emergency crews arrive at the office building in Rochester, New Hampshire, Friday.

    The man walked into the office at about 1 p.m., Maj. Michael Hambrook of the New Hampshire State Police told CNN affiliate WMUR-TV.

    Hambrook and Clinton campaign officials said two people were believed to be inside.

    Shortly before 2 p.m., police officers had taken positions across the street from the office, some kneeling behind police cruisers with guns drawn.

    A woman and her baby were released by the hostage-taker, the woman told workers at a nearby business, according to the WMUR Web site.

    A witness, Lettie Tzizik, told WMUR she spoke to a woman shortly after she was released from the office by the hostage-taker.

    "A young woman with a 6-month or 8-month-old infant came rushing into the store just in tears, and she said, 'You need to call 911. A man has just walked into the Clinton office, opened his coat and showed us a bomb strapped to his chest with duct tape,'" the Web site reported.

    Clinton, a candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination, is in the Washington area.

    WMUR: Man takes hostages at Clinton office

    She was scheduled to speak at 3 p.m. at a Democratic National Committee event, but canceled the talk because of the situation, DNC Chairman Howard Dean said.

    "Unfortunately as some of you know, there is a hostage situation in New Hampshire involving a Clinton campaign staff person," Dean told those who had gathered for the event.

    "The details are sketchy at this time, but understandably Senator Clinton is now dealing with this very difficult problem and she is not going to be able to join us today. And we will keep them in our prayers and hope for a resolution to this situation in New Hampshire."

    The nearby campaign office for Sen. Barack Obama, also a Democratic candidate for president, was shut down as a precaution, WMUR said. The offices of former senator and Democratic candidate John Edwards remained open. E-mail to a friend
