 SANAA, Yemen, June 7 (UPI) -- Yemeni authorities arrested a U.S. national in western Yemen after he raised police suspicion by traveling on a motorcycle without a license plate. The opposition Yemeni Tagamoo for Reforms Party said on its Web Site Tuesday that the American traveler was seized in the province of Hadida on the Red Sea last Sunday and handed over to the intelligence department for investigation.
"The American man, who spoke fluent Arabic, was arrested while touring the city of Hadida on the motorcycle on which he traveled all the way from Sanaa," the Web site said. | Hummmmmm. I suppose he could just be an innocent tourist. I hear Yemen is lovely this time of year. |
It said the man was transported to the Yemeni capital for further interrogation. There was no comment on the report from the U.S. Embassy. | Like they would know anything |
