Violence in Egypt effecting Central Texas Business

Doug Baum, who owns and operates Texas Camel Corps, says he is beginning to notice an impact on his business as violent attacks in Egypt increase.

Earlier this week, two Americans were kidnapped by natives Bedouin tribesmen, who live and the desert of the Middle Eastern Country.


They were released a short time later.

That, in addition to ousting of President Hosni Mubarak, worries Baum who says that the country is usually very safe.

He says that most tourists are safe, because violent attacks have been focused on wealthy Egyptians.

Even still, he has noticed a decrease in the number of people signing up for his expeditions to Egypt, but remains hopeful that the situation will improve.
