Jimmy Lee Dykes, a 65 year old Vietnam veteran and retired truck driver, does not trust the government and has been digging a bunker on his Alabama property. In previous months, Dykes has shot at neighbors with a pistol and beat another neighbor's dog with a lead pipe before threatening to shoot at the neighbor's children. This Tuesday, Dykes boarded a school bus demanding that the driver give him a child and then fatally shot the driver for refusing. Dykes took a 5 year old boy whom he allegedly does not know back to his bunker and has been holed up there since. The man agreed to let police send down coloring books, crayons and the prescription medicine the little boy desperately needs for Asperger's syndrome and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
While law enforcement officials still remain puzzled why anyone would want a 5 year old Aspie kid with ADD, both PTSD and a sudden interest in Minecraft have been suggested as a possible reasons for the man's actions. "He may be intending to sexually abuse the boy," Dale County Sheriff Wally Olson said at a news briefing, "but it is also possible that he is just having trouble building a redstone circuit and doesn't know how to ask for help on Internet forums."

I think the old guy wanted some son to raise. At least I hope it's that.
Also Assburgers and ADD are made up illnesses to sell medications.

...and it's over after seven days. FBI agents entered the bunker, saw Dykes with the gun, and probably shot him. Flash grenades were involved somehow, but details are sketchy.
tl;dr: Guy dead, kid rescued after a week

So a Doomsday Prepper finally did something drastic like kidnapping a child?
