Manila mall hostage-taker surrenders

A sacked security guard gave himself up and set free dozens of hostages he seized at gunpoint Monday in a Manila mall, ending a day-long standoff that terrified shoppers and left one man wounded. "The crisis is over," said Francis Zamora, mayor of San Juan City, which includes the mall. The drama kicked off Monday morning when the suspect shot and wounded another security guard, who was rushed to hospital in stable condition, and barricaded the hostages in an office.
