CNN reporting Dorner has 2 hostages.

On edit: Now they are saying "if" and seem to be equivocating.

They are no longer displaying a banner saying he has hostages. They are not sure if he does or does not have hostages.

Interesting, I wonder if the hostages will make a "Dorner surrenders" situation more probable?

out of the cabin. LE outside didn't fire back. Shots coming from cabin have stopped.
Fox reporting that there are no hostages.

I was wondering why they hadn't firebombed or otherwise destroyed the cabin.
