NICE, France, Oct 26 (APP/AFP): A French luxury hotel owner who was brazenly snatched in a busy part of the Riviera resort of Nice two days ago was found alive and well on Wednesday, police said. Jacqueline Veyrac, the co-owner of the five-star Grand Hotel in Cannes, was found by a resident of west Nice, prosecutor Jean-Michel Pretre said, adding that two people had been arrested in Nice in connection with the probe. The man went to inspect a white van in which the 76-year-old had been kidnapped after noticing it had false number plates. He found Veyrac bound to its floor, he said. “He smashed one of the windows, opened the door and freed Madame Veyrac before immediately informing the police,” Pretre said.
