MANILA, Philippines - A day-care center owner hijacked a busload of his students and teachers and drove them to Manila’s city hall Wednesday to demand better housing and education for the children.
Jun Ducat and at least one other hostage-taker scribbled in large letters on a sheet of paper, taped to the bus’ windshield, that they were holding 32 children and two teachers and were armed with two grenades, an assault rifle and a pistol, officer Mark Andal said.
