Hostage Describes Algeria Siege
The aftermath of the deadly four-day siege at a gas plant in Algeria. At least 48 hostages were killed here after militants swooped on the area and captured the base last Wednesday (January 16). As the Algerian army moved in, a number of local and foreign workers managed to escape. British survivor Alan Wright says he hid for a day and night before escaping with colleagues.
