My recollection of recent child-abduction statistics is that it’s a 94% chance that the man knows the child; it’s in the 70-ish range that it’s a custody matter.
The suspect is a 65 year old male, so it’d have to be a grandpa custody issue. :)
I just checked the scanner, and the hostage situation is still ongoing. My gosh, that poor little 6 year old. My prayers for him and his family.
