A 10-year-old boy who was the victim of a
kidnapping was reportedly released
because his captor became irritated when
the child wouldn’t stop singing a gospel
song.
The man allegedly used money to lure
Willie Myrick, who was 9-years-old at the
time, from his driveway in the US city of
Atlanta, Georgia, on 31 March.
He then grabbed the schoolboy, put him
in his car and drove away from the scene.
During the three hour journey, Myrick
repeatedly sang Every Praise by Hezekiah
Walker, despite his captor cursing at him
and telling him to shut up, according to
ABC News.
The man dropped Willie off unharmed in
East Point.
The song includes the verse: “Every praise
is to our God. Every word of worship with
one accord. Every praise every praise is to
our God. Sing hallelujah to our God. Glory
hallelujah is due our God. Every praise
every praise is to our God.”
"He opened the door and threw me out.
He told me not to tell anyone,” Myrick
told worshippers at his local church at an
event celebrating that he was safe.
Among the congregation was Walker, who
had travelled from New York to meet the
10-year-old.
"It's just emotional to me because you
never know who you're going to touch,"
Walker told ABC News.
"I just wanted to hug him and tell him I
love him," Walker said, adding: "I really
believe that God spoke through me to
save that young man's life."
Atlanta Police Department officers are
currently searching for the man who
abducted Willie, and have released a
sketch of the suspect. They are now
appealing for anyone with information to
come forward
