Christian Malanga, a one-time Salt Lake City resident, led a failed coup in Congo

According to the official description of events, three Americans formed an unlikely band under the leadership of Malanga, and eccentric opposition figure who dabbled in gold mining and used cars before persuading his Utah-born son to join in the ill-fated coup attempt. Six people, including Malanga, were killed in the attack early Sunday.
