SAN NICOLAS, Aruba - Authorities detained two men Sunday in connection with the disappearance of an Alabama teenager, who went missing nearly a week ago in Aruba while on a high school trip, the attorney general said. ADVERTISEMENT

Caren Janssen called the men "suspects" in the disappearance of Natalee Holloway, 18, but declined to provide further details. The men were not among the three described earlier by police as "persons of interest."

Police officers and three FBI agents, who are playing a supportive role in the investigation, took the two men into custody at two different houses in the southeastern town of San Nicolas, according to an AP photographer at the scene.

Police knocked on the door of one house, put the suspect on the floor and handcuffed him. Officers later detained a second man. They both were led to an unmarked police car and taken away.

Neighbors described the men as security guards who worked at a hotel closed down for renovation near where the 18-year-old blonde was staying at the Holiday Inn. Police and FBI agents searched the hotel Saturday.

Does it belong to the Third World ?

Being a prosperous Dutch island, I'd say no. But the whole term was "third world armpit". Even if you can make the case the Carribbean is Third World, I don't think you could ever make the case Aruba is an "armpit".

If you classify it as Dutch I suppose that takes it down another notch.

"I'm not trying to make this a racial matter."

Yes, you were too. You were also making it about this girl's appearance, and her family's money or lack thereof. I suggest you just lay off this sad scene, you obviously have no compassion because the girl is pretty, white and possibly her family is rich. She couldn't help it, it was the life she was born into and the genes she got stuck with. But you don't see it that way, you see it as a slap at other missing persons--talk about a convoluted thought process! And don't bother with the "whatever" reply--it is so junior high.

Thank You.

As usual a better freeper than I made my point for me that I wasted bandwidth on.

I have to strongly disagree with you. I stand by my argument as well.

And don't tell me to "lay off" any thread. I don't tell anyone to do that, so I expect the same from you.

Have a nice day.

Once again I ask you to support that statement.

Yawn.

Well, the troll can take his whining victim concept and shove it. An American was murdered the perps need to pay with their lives. NSNR

Yes reminds me of Janet reno saying how the crime rate in America dropped so low under klintoon. Some people will believe anything so as not to offend the Arubian den of death. NSNR
