Glad to hear it but I’m worried about his psychological well-being, the young man must have been terrified. I hope he is given counselling ASAP.
Please let this boy be found safe and unharmed.
In a way I'm hoping there is family involvement, rather than some random opportunistic perp who abducted Oliver.
As they are still looking for the jeep, the car was not what lead LE to him. So how was he found? Maybe he was able to get someone's attention?
He said police believed the abduction was premeditated but that they were not ruling anything out.
"We've received information today from other members of the public, which has sort of steered us in that direction, but again we're keeping an open mind," he said.
They thanked the media and the public for their assistance.

Australian police are so annoyingly discreet, aren't they? Mind you, if my family were involved, I would not want it any other way.
Apparently, the police were given information .....
What wonderful news that Oliver is found. So happy that this has been mostly resolved fairly quickly. May Oliver's recovery be complete, in time.
Do you get a warm and fuzzy feeling about our wonderful Aussie cops? Ya know we''ve got the best, admit it world!
There's that broken record again singing óur cops are tops'
We have such strict media laws regarding children. I was looking at them the other day, due to another case.
It is all about protecting the children, and keeping them out of the media ... as much as humanly possible.
Due to that, we frequently do not hear much about the perps of crimes against our children.
The Brits aren't half bad at it either.
Wow....I just came back to see this great news !
Well done...quickly resolved....but I hope that young Oliver can overcome this trauma with help, time and love. He must have been terrified
Who the heck is this 53 year old man, and why??
Connected to the family, but not in a good way? Remember the newsagent's family who were killed by his BIL, jealous of his success?
Could definitely be something family-connected ..... especially as Oliver was abducted pretty much outside his front door.
“It was directly out the front of his residence.”
Det Insp Hogan said there was initially a delay of several hours in alerting the public of the incident because it had been believed it could have been resolved.
“Initially there was some information which appeared that if it had been run out in due course the matter would have been resolved pretty quickly but it didn’t work out that way,” he said.
