Managed? Or forced to Tweet the message?
Hope somebody inside thinks to put together a really good sitrep. Accurate intelligence from inside the situation would be invaluable. Number of hostage takers, weapons; explosives, distribution, locations, anything they've revealed about a broader plot or their intentions, how jumpy they are (Pros? Amateurs?). Dangerous as hell, but it might save their lives in the end.
