American aid worker Stephen Vance was assassinated in his vehicle on his way to work in Peshawar, Pakistan, on November 12, 2008. The city of Peshawar is located near the Afghan border. Members of the Taliban and Al Qaeda inhabit the area, a poor region where The New York Times reports the U.S. is attempting to create jobs and build infrastructure. Vance was the director of the "livelihoods" project that builds houses in the area.The New York Times: American Aid Worker Slain in Pakistan (November 12, 2008)
