Dominican trio 'disappear' en route to Virgin Islands

[karenssp]

I was just reading about the Dominicans who where traveling en route to St. Thomas. 21 players boarded a flight on Monday from the Capital Santo Domingo to San Juan, Puerto Rico. During the two and a half stopover they went to get some food, and never came back to catch the flight. I guess this was their opportunity to get out of the Dominican republic and find a better life.
