Not a lot to put into the diary yet, but the AP is reporting that Ingrid and 3 American hostages have been rescued. I put "Released/Rescued" in the title because there is no word yet if it was a military freeing or a prisoner exchange release.
Regardless, thank you to all that is holy that her six year nightmare is over.
I'll edit in anything else I find. But it's certainly a day to celebrate!
UPDATE: a slightly more informative AP article here. Edited title as it would appear it was a rescue and not an exchange/release.
3 updates after the fold. The Americans freed were Marc Gonsalves, Thomas Howes and Keith Stansell
UPDATE 2: a much more informative AP article here. Would seem it was a military operation. They were able to capture rebels working a security perimeter and then get them to convince the captors to surrender. Amazingly no deaths.
UPDATE 3: Some more stories/sources
Telegraph
Reuters
Times Online UK
And the first article I've seen with anything from her family here
UPDATE 4: MSNBC article which includes the names of the American's freed (Marc Gonsalves, Thomas Howes and Keith Stansell) here
