I hope the police don't do the same as when they dealt with a drug crazed man who grabbed a child...

More political shenanigans..
This guy"kidnapper" was a wealthy Filipino/teacher with contacts to a local senator who boarded the bus to negotiate a heroic release..
All pre planned as a highly visible political campaign..
A successful one at that.
