The hostage survived with no serious injuries. <\/p>\n<p>The incident stemmed from a mental health crisis the gunman suffered after not taking his medication for 48 hours, police said. He suffered from bipolar disorder and has a violent history. <\/p>\n<p>Friday\u2019s barricaded gunman situation is the 28th this year, Craig said Saturday.
