"A bank robbery has turned into a hostage situation with shots fired and one suspected injury in Jacksonville, Florida.

Authorities interrupted a bank robbery in progress at the Community First Credit Union on West Edgewood Avenue Wednesday morning, leading to 'multiple' hostages being taken and shots fired, authorities said.

And according to a News4Jax reporter on the scene, Jackson Sheriff's Office believes that one person was shot - though that has not yet been confirmed."

Saw that. Looked pretty effective.

Still hearing two people shot, but no evidence that is true.
