A Minnesota teacher who was detained by Russian forces while trying to flee Ukraine has been released.
Tyler Jacob, a 28-year-old teacher from Winona, Minnesota, was held by Russian soldiers in custody but is now back with his family, Sen. Amy Klobuchar, who represents Minnesota, said in a statement on Friday.
Klobuchar said that she had reached out to the State Department for assistance with returning him to the United States.
"Over the last two weeks, my team and I have been in close contact with his family, the State Department, and the U.S. embassy in Moscow working towards this outcome, and I am grateful that we were able to help bring him to safety," Klobuchar said.
