DNA testing for German Forest Boy?

There have been no new developments in the German "Forest Boy" story since October, when it was reported that 'Ray', the boy who said he had lived in the forest for years with his father ('Ryan') after his mother ('Doreen') died in a car accident, refused to provide police with a DNA sample after various people came forward claiming him as a relative. Now, the Daily Mirror reports that he has agreed to provide the sample. If the Mirror story is true, something led Ray to change his mind. Maybe he no longer enjoys being a ward of the state, or perhaps he has grown weary of starring in his own mystery drama.
