Officials in Venezuela say police have rescued Venezuelan national and U.S. Major League Baseball player Wilson Ramos.

Venezuela’s Information Minister Andres Izarra said late Friday that Ramos, a 24-year-old catcher for the Washington Nationals, was found alive by security forces in the mountainous region of Montalban. No details of the rescue operation have been released to the public.

Ramos had been visiting with family at a private home Wednesday night in Valencia when several men entered the residence and snatched him. Ramos was in Venezuela to play with his winter league team, the Aragua Tigers.
