'It is a difficult time for our community...We're just trusting that God will work everything out,' Carleton Horst, friend of Americans kidnapped in Haiti, tells ABCNewsLive.
The FBI made contact with the 400 Mawozo gang, which is accused of kidnapping 17 missionaries and holding them hostage for $1M per person ransom.The statement from Christian Aid Ministries comes as U.S. and Haitian authorities keep working to secure the release of the 12 adults and five children, including an 8-month-old, who were kidnapped Oct. 16 near the capital of Port-au-Prince.
U.S. officials have reiterated that the government issued a warning in August about the risk of kidnapping for ransom in Haiti, where the leader of the 400 Mawozo gang that abducted the 16 Americans and one Canadian recently threatened to kill the group if his demands are not met. On Tuesday, U.S. national security adviser Jake Sullivan said the situation will be a topic of conversation at the upcoming G20 meeting, adding that the U.S. and other countries need to step up and give Haiti the kind of investment and international aid it requires.
