Where did you hear about this?

The world is crazy. Why someone would do something like that is beyond me.

I heard it first on my GeoQuiz podcast from PRI's The World. In that interview, the boy says that he became aware of the man's intentions when he heard him yelling, "God is great!" in Arabic. Guess that answers the motive question.
