I was held hostage at work once by belligerent armed thieves
jesus christ what was that like?
Horrifying! Being taken hostage by a criminal abductor and being under threat of serious harm is a bad situation
yeah it is. do hostage situations occur often in the US?
Yes and the person who does it is called a hostage taker
i figured. anything else about hostage situations you can tell me?
They do it to compel something to happen like robbery or ransom and threaten physical harm if ultimatum not met
thank you for the information on being held hostage.
