COLLEYVILLE — All four people taken hostage inside a synagogue during a morning service were safe Saturday night after an 11-hour standoff, authorities say.

No injuries were reported among the hostages, one of whom was released earlier in the evening. All of the hostages were adults, and one was the synagogue’s rabbi, Charlie Cytron-Walker.
