SAN DIEGO, CA – Local teenager Travis Munroe is safe and back with his family today after being rescued by a platoon of
Navy SEALs. Munroe, 17, was kidnapped months ago from his suburban home by an al Qaeda cell, and later shown in a terrorist propaganda video release out of Yemen.

Naval Intelligence found the connection after stumbling upon Munroe’s Facebook profile.
“When we checked Mr. Munroe’s Facebook, we discovered an extensively crafted profile outlining him as being a member of the dissolved SEAL Team Six,” said Lt. Cmdr. Charles Aimes. “It even came with a full set of pictures including one fast-roping out of a Blackhawk helicopter, which on closer observation was actually him sliding down a playground fire pole in air soft garb with a Blackhawk photoshopped into the background. It would have had even me convinced except for that fact that I know that no real Navy SEAL is $#@!ing dumb enough to put this on Facebook.”
