Charles Albert Poland Jr. was buried on Sunday (February 3), as the hostage stand-off in Alabama's Midland City continued for a sixth day. The bus driver lost his life as a gunman abducted a child from his bus. Suspect Jimmy Lee Dykes is believed to be holding the 5-year-old boy in an underground bunker.
