Nordstrom Rack Hostages Were Employees, Not Customers

Police were in the process Friday morning of debriefing the hostages and putting together composite drawings of the suspects. In addition, they were scouring surveillance video from inside and outside the Nordstrom Rack, surrounding businesses and the mall to determine whether any additional suspects were involved. The 14 hostages held overnight at Nordstrom Rack in Westchester were all employees of the store, LAPD officials said Friday. At least three hostages were injured, in the incident that began at 11 p.m.
