New update at 11:45
"Law enforcement agencies say they have not been able to confirm they have a hostage situation today at the Governors Office Building.
Capt. Mike Smith of the Jefferson City Police Department briefed members of the media about 11:30 a.m. that a call came in after 10 a.m. today, saying an automated alarm in the building indicated a hostage situation was under way on the fifth floor of the building.
Smith said authorities have checked with people who work on the fifth floor and other floors and that no problems have been reported. Smith emphasized no shots have been fired at the site and no one is hurt.
The Missouri Public Service Commission has offices on the fifth floor, but it’s not known if their offices were involved.
SWAT and tactical squads are on site, Smith said. They will be going through the building floor by floor to check the identification of those they find in the offices. Smith said it would take some time to clear the building.
The building, located at Madison Street and East Capital Avenue, originally was the Governor Hotel and was renovated by the state about 10 years ago.
Authorities are asking those in buildings around the office building to stay in their buildings and off the streets as authorities clear the building.
Smith was asked if Gov. Jay Nixon was at the Governor’s Mansion, which is located across the street from the office building.
He is out of town, Smith said."

There are helicopters overhead.
I was planning on walking to Subway for lunch. Now I'm not sure. I don't think they can shoot me from the Governor Hotel to Subway.... but I guess I'll probably not risk it!
The proxy doors in my building have been locked. (Wish they would lock the main entrances!)

That sounds promising. No Subway for you today sis! Stay safe!

I find that interesting, as I have been wondering where the mother was when gps gained custody of AB and the twins, and it appears that when the gps moved to MO from CA the mother lived with them at least according to what you have pointed out on Casenet (although before the custody records on AB disappeared, I remember the respondent's address was different from the gps, or was the respondent in that case the father? IDK) -- the property on Lomo was purchased by gps in 2005 -- and the gm filed for custody in 2005 --
OT -the fine for the no seatbelt charge was only ten bucks :|

Hopefully, it is a false alarm.

UPDATE: Capt. Tim Hull, of the highway patrol, said officials had no verification that any hostage is involved.
He said a woman in the building thought she heard the word hostage over an intercom. She called the buildings security company, which contacted police. Authorities locked the building down and continue to investigate.
SWAT teams in fatigues are preparing to enter the building now.
A staffer for the Public Service Commission said the commission has talked to its employees on floors one through nine and none knew of a hostage situation. The PSC floors are all locked and accessible only with a Sonitrol key card.
Part of the PSCs telecommunications staff is housed on the fifth floor, the reported site of the problem.
Weve contacted one staff member on all floors and have no reports of any unusual activity other than the police being there, said the staffer, Mark Hughes. It doesnt mean something hasnt taken place, he added.
The July 2009 drug charge isn't necessarily possession of marijuana. Missouri records misdemeanor drug charges in CaseNet as blah blah blah up to 35 grams of mj, something along those lines, I can't remember specifically.
She could also have some municipal drug charges that wouldn't show on CaseNet. Some, but not all, municipal courts don't show on CN.

The charge is possession of an illegal substance except for up to 35g of mj. Less mj than that is a lesser charge. From what I remember seeing, the former was the charge.
Yes, but that doesn't mean it was absolutely pot. It's just the code they use. The arresting agency was water patrol, she must have been at The Lake.
It appears to be a false alarm. Some lady called the security company for the building and stated she thought she heard someone over the intercom say hostage situation.
