PIEDRAS NEGRAS, Mexico — A Texas man kidnapped from his Mexican hunting ranch three weeks ago was released Monday, officials said.

Librado Pina Jr., 49, was reportedly in good condition after crossing into Laredo, Texas, said Santos Vasquez, a prosecutor in the border state of Coahuila, where the kidnapping occurred. Vasquez did not comment on whether a ransom was paid for his release.

Vasquez said there was no information on the ranch's Mexican cook, Marco Ortiz, who was kidnapped along with Pina, his son, and two other men.

Librado Pina III, 25, was released Friday in Nuevo Laredo, just across the border from Laredo. The two others were freed a few days after their abduction.

The Pinas and the others were on a hunting trip when 30 to 40 armed men abducted them Nov. 26 from the La Barranca ranch.

The elder Pina owns the popular deer-hunting ranch near Hidalgo in Coahuila, about 40 miles northwest of Nuevo Laredo.

Erik Vasys, an FBI spokesman in San Antonio, Texas said Monday's release was an encouraging sign but noted there were many other U.S. citizens held captive south of the border.

"The FBI is very thankful for the safe release of Librado Pina, however it's punctuated by the 27 outstanding unsolved kidnapping cases of Americans in Mexico," Vasys said.
