Police surround office near Mo. Governor’s MansionJEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — Police have surrounded a Jefferson City office building near the Governor’s Mansion and employees have been told to remain in their offices with the doors locked.
An office worker who was evacuated from one of the lower floors says police told him there was a hostage situation. But authorities have not confirmed that. The Governor Office Building primarily houses the staff of the Missouri Public Service Commission, which regulates utilities. It also is home to the state’s consumer advocacy office and a development finance board. State employees in the building, reached by phone by The Associated Press, said police have told them to remain in their offices with the doors locked.
