[Doyle]

The boy was walking on the sidewalk in front of his home in the 200 block of Princess Street between 4:30 p.m. and 5 p.m. when he was approached by a white man in a green Jeep, according to the boy's mother. The man told the boy that his mother was at McDonald's and that he should get in the car so he could take him there, according to police.

The FBI opened 93 such investigations last year, down down from 134 the year before. And the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children estimates 100 such abductions occur yearly -- down from 200 to 300 in the 1980s.
