'It was supposed to be a dream safari here in Uganda' - robynkriel1 reports on Kimberly Sue Endicott, an American woman kidnapped at gunpoint in Africa. She has since been freed, and is in the custody of US officials.

"We are aware of reports that a US citizen hostage was recovered on April 7 by Ugandan security officials," a State Department spokesperson told CNN."Privacy considerations prevent us from commenting further at this time."Correction: An earlier version of this story misstated Michael Rourke's last name.
