The hostage-taker was taken into custody by police and the bus passengers were freed unharmed. The standoff forced Ukraine's president to briefly plug a 15-year-old film.

Ukrainian police say the armed man who took 13 people aboard a long-distance bus in the western city of Lutsk hostage on Tuesday morning has been detained after authorities stormed the vehicle. 

"The hostages are freed! The man who took the hostages and kept them on a bus in Lutsk has been detained," the Interior Ministry posted on Telegram late Tuesday following a 10-hour stand-off with the assailant.
