YEREVAN, Armenia (AP) – Armenian police on Monday freed a 3-year-old boy taken hostage at a pre-school and arrested his knife-wielding captor.
Police managed to persuade the hostage-taker to release the boy, who was unhurt, said police spokesman Ashot Agaronian. Immediately after a police officer took the child out of the room, police used a stun grenade to arrest the attacker.
