男童遭绑架连唱3小时圣歌 逼疯绑匪被释放

A 9-year-old boy who was abducted from his home in Atlanta, sang a gospel song for hours until his kidnapper snapped and set him free.

一个9岁的小男孩在亚特兰大的家中被绑架，他唱了好几个小时的福音歌，直到绑匪崩溃不得不放他回去。

On March 31, Willie Myrick was playing outside with his pet Chihuahua when a man grabbed him and forced him into his car, police told local news outlets.

警方告诉当地资讯媒体称，3月31日，威利·迈里克在外面与他的宠物吉娃娃玩耍时，一名男子绑架了他并带到车上。

“He was cursing at me telling me to shut up and didn’t want to hear a word from me,” Willie told a local station. “He said if I told anyone, he would hurt me, like in a bad way.”

“他不停咒骂我，叫我闭嘴，不想听到我说的话”，威利告诉当地的电视台。“他说如果我告诉任何人，他就会伤害我，而且会把我伤得很严重。”

Willie, who just turned 10 this week, chose not to remain silent, but to sing a favorite gospel song “Every Praise,” the station reported.

据电视台报道，这周刚满10岁的威利没有选择保持沉默，而是唱了一首最喜欢的福音歌曲《每一个赞美》。

Willie continued to sing until his kidnapper, who had reportedly been driving around for almost three hours, threw him onto the street and drove away.

威利继续唱歌，据称一直持续到绑匪开车转了三个小时，最后把威利扔在路上自己则驾车逃走。

The songwriter behind the gospel tune, Hezekiah Walker, flew to Atlanta this week to meet Willie after hearing his story.

这首福音歌的作曲者——希西加·沃尔克，在听到威利的故事后，本周乘飞机到亚特兰大与威利见面。

Mr. Walker told local news affiliates that he believes God spoke through him to “save that boy’s life.”

沃尔克告诉当地的资讯之声说他相信上帝借他（指威利）发声，从而“拯救了那个男孩的生命”。

There is currently a $10,000 reward for the capture of Willie’s abductor who is described as a black male in his mid-to late-20s. He is said to have been wearing khaki shorts and a white, short-sleeve shirt with a Nike logo at the time of the kidnapping.

现在，警方悬赏10000美元希望能抓住绑架威利的绑匪。据描述，这名绑匪是一名年龄介于25到30岁的黑人男性。据称绑架发生时，他穿着卡其短裤和一件带有耐克标志的白色的短袖衫。
