A famous American “YouTuber” was kidnapped in Haiti by a gang while trying to interview the leader of the country’s most famous gang.
The New York Post reported that Addison Pierre Maalouf, known online as “YourFellowArab,” traveled from his home in Atlanta to interview Jimmy “BBQ” Schizer, the leader of the notorious “G9 and Family” gang.
“But just 24 hours after arriving in the country, Maalouf and his Haitian colleague were kidnapped by members of the Mauzu 400 gang on March 14,” she added, as the gang’s leader, known as Kingbin Lanmo Sanjo, is on the FBI’s most wanted list.
The source noted that Maalouf, who is of Lebanese origin, is being held for a ransom of $600,000.
A spokesman for the State Department’s Office of Consular Affairs told The Sun: “The State Department and our embassies and consulates abroad have no greater priority than the safety and security of U.S. citizens abroad.”
“We are aware of reports of the kidnapping of a U.S. citizen in Haiti, and we reiterate our message to American citizens: Don’t travel there.”
Maalouf is known for publishing videos investigating the ins and outs of criminals and gangs around the world. He has about one and a half million subscribers on his YouTube channel.
