Nice to see a story with a happy ending. No court case to follow for those 2 ladrones!

Public execution would have been my preference, but I'll take their deaths as a happy ending like Garyexpat.

Two more insects eliminated. Quite a few more to go.

Kidnapping is a rampant problem all over the world. DR police take it very seriously and as a result it has not caught on here. Most Kidnappers do not make it to trial and die suddenly from lead poisoning.*

The Daily Heil article refers to the "upmarket" neighbourhood of Bella Vista but the DR media reports say it happened in "Residencial Bella Vista" in Santo Domingo North, a completely different area. Bella Vista is between Anacaona, Churchill, R?mulo Betancourt and N??ez de C?ceres avenues in the National District.

From Friday's DR1 news:
Two men killed in rescue of kidnapped British citizen
The Police report the killing of two men suspected of involvement in the alleged kidnapping of a British citizen in Santo Domingo North municipality. The two were named as 34-year old Samuel Ar?stides Melo Torres aka Samuelito, in possession of a Browning 9mm caliber firearm and 58-year old Teodoro Samuel Melo Cuevas aka Vieja Rabia, who was in possession of a Taurus gun at the time of his death.
A preliminary Police report says that the two men were killed during a pursuit by Police agents on Calle 6 of the Residencial Bella Vista in Santo Domingo North where they had been holding 49-year old UK citizen John Basil Valentine. A third man, 45-year Fred Antonio Guerra Acevedo (aka El Don or El Jefe) was injured during the clash and is under police custody at the Ney Arias Lora Hospital.
According to the Police, several others were arrested in the case: 20-year old Enmanuel Lebr?n Gonz?lez aka El Guardia, 40-year old Jos? Manuel Montero Montero aka El Poli, 32-year old Francisco Aureliano Fabi?n Ure?a aka El Gordo, and 40-year old Fernando Cruz aka El Chino.
During the raid, the Police recovered a Nissan Pathfinder vehicle belonging to the British citizen as well as a black Chevrolet Tahoe, a red Mitsubishi Endeavor, and a green Kia Rio vehicle.

thank heavens for a happy ending, a few years back my friend was kidnapped and we all feared the worst but he miraculously escaped and we went down to pick him up in boca chica. he was trying to decompress after being so close to death, so he contracted with a prostitute and grabbed a bottle of brugal. when we heard the story of the harrowing escape it was like a real life thriller almost to the point of being unbelievable

Just love those Dominican nick names. Browning 9mm is a nice piece. Gotta be stolen. Great police work and a happy ending for some.

Random and it's always good policy to watch the company you keep. Do not bring new girlfriends home. The DR police have been great in "terminating with extreme prejudice" kidnappers in the Dominican Republic. It has not caught on here as a result.*
