BUENOS AIRES, Argentina — A Mormon mission president is safe after armed assailants held, robbed and released him last week in Argentina, according to a church statement and news reports.

The LDS Church confirmed the incident Wednesday involving David Paul Robertson, 52, president of the Argentina Buenos Aires West Mission of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

President Robertson was “robbed and briefly held last week on the night of September 24th," church spokesman Dale Jones said in a statement. "The assailants took his wallet, cellphone and vehicle and then released him on the street. President Robertson is safe and has reported the incident to authorities.”
