One of our cracker-jack staff recently sent us an email describing a dramatic scene out in Westlake. He reported (at 11am and 1pm) that the Wells Fargo Bank in Westlake @ 360 and Bee Caves has been completely roped off. There are fire trucks, ambulances, EMS people, and a half dozen squad cars. It looks like a possible bank robbery/hostage situation. We do not have any more information or photos at this time.

If you are in the area and have any information on further developments, please put them in the comments section.
