Social Media Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 9 Rebel police officers rioted in Haiti's capital Port-au-Prince on Thursday in protest at the killing of more than a dozen colleagues by criminal gangs. The rioting officers blame the government for not taking action. More than 100 demonstrators blocked streets, burned tyres, broke security cameras and damaged vehicles. Local media said several officers broke through the gates of the prime minister's residence and attempted to enter Haiti's international airport. The National Union of Haitian Police Officers says 14 men have been killed since the start of the year in various gang attacks on police stations. Seven officers were killed in shootout on Wednesday alone, according to Haiti's National Police. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
