Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Alta View Hospital hostage incident
The news coverage seems pretty sparse and contemporaneous to the event. Not every crime that has ever occurred and ever been reported on needs its own page in an encyclopedia. I don't know what WP:CRIME has to do with anything, as that is about individuals, not events. "Looks notable to me" and "event got plenty of attention" are even more worthless as justfications for keeping (one day in my dreams people who regularly do that will be banned from AfD discussions). More pertinent is  and the following subsections of WP:NOTABILITY. Lasting effects? Depth and duration of coverage etc? Hardly. The existence of the TV movie about the event might help, but it's clutching at straws, surely
