Gunmen in Uganda have abducted an American tourist and his driver inside a national park close to the border with Democratic Republic of Congo, government spokesman Ofwono Opondo said Wednesday.
Ugandan soldiers are hunting the gunmen, who abducted the pair around dusk on Tuesday.
"Four armed men, not yet identified, between 5:00 pm and 7:00 pm, staged an ambush and kidnapped an American tourist with his Ugandan driver near Katoke Gate in the Queen Elizabeth National Park," Opondo said in a statement.
