North Korea is reported to have detained a serving US Army soldier. Reports said that the soldier crossed the heavily fortified border from South Korea without permission. The man was identified by the US Pentagon as a 23-year-old Private 2nd Class or PV2 named Travis King. Reports said that he was on an organised tour of the UN-run zone dividing the two countries. The crisis comes during a particularly tense time with North Korea. A senior US commander said that there had been no contact with the soldier.
