KANDAHAR, Afghanistan (AP) — Gunmen kidnapped a burqa-clad American aid worker and her driver in southern Afghanistan's largest city early yesterday, snatching the woman from a residential neighborhood as she was on her way to work.
"It is our hope that our worker will be released safely and quickly and we are doing all that we can to resolve the situation," Mr. Palmer said. "This is a first for our organization and we're really praying for a quick resolution."
Mr. Palmer said Miss Mizell has worked for the foundation on income-generating women's projects in Kandahar for the past three years.
