Ukraine hostage crisis: Police storm bus in Lutsk to end stand-off

A stand-off with a gunman in Ukraine has ended with police storming a bus and freeing his hostages after hours of negotiations, officials say.

Interior Minister Arsen Avakov tweeted pictures of the gunman lying on the ground after his arrest in the city of Lutsk.

All the hostages are said to be unharmed.

The man had originally been holding about 20 hostages but released three shortly before the police moved in.
