Crime Information
Five heavily armed gunmen have taken His Holiness Alexy III, Patriarch of Moscow and All of Russia and the clergymen of Saint Dimitri Holy Trinity Church hostage.
Today, at approximately 0930 hours, gunmen entered Saint Dimitri's during a prayer service, causing the congregation to scatter. Emergency phone calls began pouring in, reporting the incident and indicating that the gunmen were only interested in finding His Holiness.
Additional Information
His Holiness is visiting America, and in particular LA, to participate in the Peace Day festivities. Church officials were concerned that an event such as this could take place and hired a private security firm to protect His Holiness. As a VIP, His Holiness was offered protection by LAPD, but Church elders felt they would have more control over events and publicity if they hired a private firm. The firm is Coleman Security, run by Nick Coleman. Coleman was with San Diego PD for eight years before leaving and starting Coleman Security. Few of his employees are law enforcement trained. The men Coleman has working on this job include a former bar bouncer, "Sugar" Stevens; an ex-marine, Chaz Green; and an ex-long haul driver, Terry Sole.
It is unclear at this time whether Coleman Security is a threat or, if fact, providing protection. Their presence is a hindrance to SWAT and must be dealt with. They are to be secured and removed from the premises if His Holiness and the clergy of Saint Dimitri are to be successfully rescued.

Suspect Information
Air support has made numerous passes over the Church and have made visual confirmation of heavily armed, tactically outfitted suspects. Suspects were seen carrying AK47's. Consider them armed and dangerous. nGoing tactical is only option at this point, as all LAPD efforts at making contact with the suspects are being thwarted and shots are being heard from inside the Church and adjoining residence.
