"The Calling" Singer Abducted

Alex Band Abduction

Alex Band, lead singer of the rock band "The Calling", was abducted this weekend while taking a stroll down a street in Michigan.  He was beaten severely and then dumped on nearby train tracks.  The police are investigating.

Sources close to Alex stated that the singer was in Lapeer, MI for a music festival and decided to walk from his hotel to a nearby mini-mart around 4am Sunday morning. 


It has been reported that during the stroll, a van pulled up alongside Alex and the people inside snatched the singer right off the street, then proceeded to beat the crap out of him. 

Eventually, sources say, the abductors dumped the badly beaten rocker on some nearby train tracks. 


Another member of the band noticed 32-year-old Alex had gone missing later that morning and assembled a search party. The singer was discovered a short time later.  Alex survived the incident, but his current condition is unclear. 

Law enforcement wouldn't confirm the specific details, but did state that an incident report has been filed, and officials are currently investigating. 

The Calling was huge back in 2001, when they released that song "Wherever You Will Go", but broke up soon after. It is rumored that the band had just recently reunited.
