I've been following this, and as each day passes, I get more and more concerned that it won't end well.
The short story is this: crazy old man and doomsday prepper Jimmy Lee Dykes (age 65) boards a school bus in Alabama, shoots and kills the bus driver, and grabs a 5 year old kid. Dykes and kid are not holed up in some underground bunker on Dykes' property. The kid has medical issues which require medication (which, so far, he has gotten).
