Grayson in Niger during Coup action
h/t: Gateway Pundit (Jim Hoft)
Congressman Alan Grayson traveled to Niger this week. While he was there a military coup broke out. Several members of the president's guard were killed by the military and the democratic president was taken into custody.

Grayson was serving as part of a congressional delegation that was focused on science, technology and humanitarian relief.

When the fighting and gun fire broke out Grayson was taken to the home of the United States Ambassador to Niger where he stayed with armored protection. Being a good democrat, he cut-and-run from the country.
