Two American tourists kidnapped in Egypt

Quote:
By NBC News, msnbc.com staff and news services

Updated at 7:10 a.m. ET: CAIRO -- Two American tourists and their guide have been kidnapped near a popular Red Sea resort in Egypt, South Sinai's chief of police confirmed to NBC News Friday.

(snip)

On Friday, the military and police officials told The Associated Press that abductors sped away in a sedan and a pickup truck after taking the Americans, leaving behind three other people who had been in the minivan. The officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to release the information, did not know the nationalities of those left behind.

Why, oh why do people insist on vacationing in unsafe places?
