Breaking: SWAT Team in North Austin

The Statesman is reporting that the APD SWAT team is responding to a call about a barricaded man near the North Austin Medical Center. Does anyone in that area know what's going on?

Update: A commenter tells us it's over already.

Is that true about Las Manitas?

I DIDN'T DO IT. I SWEAR :>)

Statesman, front page. Without reading the story, I now love those sisters.

Those sisters wanted to take our money and run. They aren't "doing the right thing." The pressure and attention got to be too much so they bailed. Not to mention the stipulations that were being put in place. A lot of people do a lot of good things, doesn't mean that our tax dollars should go to bail them out for bad business decisions or tough breaks.
