The enlisted sailor was detained last week by Venezuelan law enforcement, two defense officials said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the officials said the sailor has been in Venezuelan custody since on or about Aug. 30.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe U.S. Navy is looking into this and working closely with the State Department,\u201d the Pentagon said in a statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to provide details not made public, referred to the State Department for an update on the sailor\u2019s status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the officials said the service member was neither on official travel nor did they have authorized leave to visit Venezuela.
