Irony of the week: anti kidnap expert kidnapped in Mexico

Felix Batista is a former U.S. army officer and a well-known U.S. anti-kidnapping expert who sometimes serves as a negotiator with kidnappers.

Now Batista has himself fallen victim to abductors in Mexico as unidentified assailants snatched him from a street in the northern state of Coahuila.

Batista is a consultant for the Houston, Texas-based security firm ASI Global LLC.
