This is about a block away from where I work. My building and the Eaton Centre across the street from me were on lockdown for the better part of an hour, and I got some interesting pictures of police in SWAT great with an armoured truck and big rifles.

I don't think I was in any real danger where I was, but it was very close by, and there was a lot of running and screaming in the street below my window.
