PUERTO PRÍNCIPE (AP) – a police officer was killed and three others were injured in Haiti on Monday on the second day of nationwide protests by accusations of government corruption. Two of the injured are foreigners by shooting. One of these victims is a 29-year French that moved with his partner and a Haitian-American tourist from Port-au-Prince airport to a popular club Beach about two hours away. He is called Marion Bobin, said his partner, Francisco Eugene, which explained the incident to The Associated Press.
Eugene, 27 years, said that Haitian-American tourists and the driver were also injured.
He said that an armed group tried to stop the shuttle service operated by the club more or less half an hour until the unit arrived at their destination, and began to fire after the driver refused to stop.
The severity of the wounds of those affected was unknown so far. Hours earlier, an agent was killed by a street gang in the capital, police said. The agent was traveling on a motorcycle taxi that was stopped at a checkpoint operated by a gang, told the AP the police spokesman Gary Derosier. The policeman was killed and his body burned in an alley.
Schools not labored, and most of the activities in the country were suspended on Monday, the next day that six people died in clashes between protesters and police.
The protesters demanded the resignation of the President Jovenel Moïse by failing to investigate accusations of corruption by the former Government relating to Petrocaribe, a fuels program subsidized by Venezuela.En this note:
