Libya's Prime Minister Kidnapped and Rescued

Libya's Prime Minister was kidnapped early Thursday morning.

Ali Zeidan was taken at gun point by a group of one hundred and fifty militia.

Several other militias then banded together and forced their way into the building he was being held and escorted him to safety.

It is unclear what the purpose of the kidnapping was, since he was given up without an actual fight, but the incident clearly showed how unsecured Libya is.
