Gunman storms Dutch TV station

A gunman stormed a Dutch CNN affiliate on Thursday and demanded to be put on air. He was arrested by police.
The unidentified man wanted 10-15 minutes to "tell his story," the director of the NOS state broadcaster told CNN. He put a gun to the head of a guard, who took him to a studio that was not in use, said Jan de Jong.
Video from inside the studio shows a man with a weapon, pacing and wearing a black suit with a white shirt, black tie.

Police can then be heard shouting and he drops his weapon. They approach and arrest him.

No shots were fired, and there were no injures reported.

The building was evacuated and authorities were working to clear the station.
