I know they said on the news this morning that the hostages were released early this morning. Did they close that whole business park area for investigations?

Sounds like it. This was the email he got (he's in the Boston office):
Hi all,

I’m sure many of you have heard that our LA team is currently unable to access their office building.  There was police action at the Nordstrom, Howard Hughes last night (including a hostage situation) so the area around the building is locked-down by the LAPD.  

The story is horrific.

I really hate that this is turning into "if everyone carried a gun none of this would have happened" I should never read newspaper comments. There's never an overly intelligent response.

Good to know. I will be avoiding the surrounding area then today for sure.

What the hell? I don't get how managed to still flee in a getaway car if the police were already on the scene?!?
