PORT-AU-PRINCE: A group of 10 American Baptists were being held in the Haitian capital yesterday after trying to take 33 children out of Haiti.

The church group, most of them from Idaho, allegedly lacked the proper documents when they were arrested Friday night in a bus along with children from 2 months to 12 years old who had survived the catastrophic earthquake.

Representatives of the group say they were setting up an orphanage across the border in the Dominican Republic.
