He was demanding that a specific child be given to him, but the driver refused.
The man then shot and killed the driver, before grabbing one of the children and kidnapping him.
He then took the child to what police are describing as a bunker, at his home.
Police continue to be in a standoff, with the man, as of Wednesday afternoon.
They are identifying him as sixty-five year old Jimmy Lee Dykes.
He is described as a Vietnam veteran, with anti-government beliefs.
Dykes was due in court, Wednesday, for pointing a gun, at one of his neighbors, last month.
The child has not been identified, but is five or six.
It is unclear if there is a relation between the shooter and the child.
