Rockville, M.D. ,
Sep 2, 2010 -
Today Maryland Congressman Chris Van Hollen released the following statement on yesterday’s incident at Discovery Communications in Silver Spring, M.D.:
“My thoughts and prayers are with the people and their families who faced the dangerous situation at Discovery Headquarters yesterday afternoon. I thank Police Chief J. Thomas Manger, local and federal law enforcement, Montgomery County Fire and Rescue, and the management at Discovery Communications for their response – safely evacuating employees and the day care center, securing the area, and freeing hostages. Although there was a loss of life, their courage, swift response, and professionalism helped prevent a bad situation from becoming worse and even more deadly.”
