Calls grow in Haiti for the dismissal and arrest of the country's police chief
CALLS for the dismissal and arrest of Haiti’s police chief grew today as heavily armed gangs launched a new attack in the capital of Port-au-Prince.
The latest attack saw gangs seizing control of yet another police station early on Saturday.
Armed men raided the coastal community of Gressier in the western tip of Port-au-Prince late on Friday, injuring people, burning cars and attacking homes and other infrastructure as scores of people fled into the nearby mountains following a barrage of gunfire overnight.
