Hostage Situation Comes to an End

The five-year-old boy held hostage in an underground bunker since last Tuesday was finally rescued yesterday. Police say the child was abducted from a school bus in Midland City, AL after his kidnapper, Jimmy Lee Dykes, shot and killed the bus driver. Police had made contact with Dykes and had been lowering toys, food, and medication for the boy through a ventilation pipe. Police entered the bunker yesterday fearing that Dykes was going to hurt the boy. Dykes is now dead, and the boy is now safe.
