Hillary Clinton Hostage suspect who claims to have had an bomb strapped to his chest surrenders to authorities. The man, Lee Eisenberg, claimed to have a bomb strapped to his chest, but it turned out to be road flares held with duct tape, police said. "I am very grateful that this difficult day has ended so well. All of my campaign staff are safe," Clinton said outside her Washington home. "I want to thank them for their extraordinary courage and coolness under some very difficult pressures and dangerous situations." "This has been a very hard day for all of us in our campaign," said Clinton, who was planning to go to New Hampshire Friday night. "I'm just relieved to have this situation end so peacefully without anyone being injured." On Friday afternoon, one of the hostages contacted the CNN Washington bureau and then put Eisenberg on the phone. The hostage and Eisenberg called CNN multiple times throughout the afternoon and talked to some CNN staffers. Eisenberg said he had mental problems and couldn't get anyone to help him. CNN assumed Eisenberg could be watching CNN's broadcast and chose not to report his calls to avoid compromising the safety of the hostages. Buildings close to the storefront campaign office on Main Street were evacuated, including local campaign centers for Clinton's Democratic presidential rivals, Sen. Barack Obama and former Sen. John Edwards. *New Development* - Rochester police Chief David DuBois said Eisenberg was being held on state charges of kidnapping and reckless conduct, and that federal charges were being considered.
