LEON HARRIS, CNN ANCHOR: I'm just trying to get some information for you on a story that we are just now hearing about on the Associated Press wires coming out of Texas this morning. Word of a standoff at a credit union where a gunman is holding right now, we believe, two employees hostage inside a San Antonio credit union.

We -- right now, we understand this is at the San Antonio Federal Credit Union Branch in Bandera (ph) -- on Bandera (ph) Road, rather, and that is in the city's northwest side.

What we know right now is that there are two people being held hostage inside this facility, and police are trying right now to establish some sort of contact or communication with the gunman, and that is all that we know at this particular point, and we are going to continue to follow this story with the Associated Press wires, and see if we can get someone on the phone to tell us about it.
