2 Turkish Airlines crew kidnapped in Lebanon

Lebanese officials say gunmen have kidnapped two crew members - a pilot and a co-pilot - for Turkish Airlines in Beirut.

Security officials say the two men, both Turkish nationals, were seized as they were travelling in a van with other crew members from the Beirut International Airport to a hotel early Friday. The officials say six gunmen ambushed the car on an old airport road, snatched the two men from the vehicle and let the rest continue on. (AP)
