Gangs attack police stations in Haiti

AUTHORITIES in Haiti continued to work throughout the weekend to retake some of the streets in the country’s capital following gang attacks on at least three police stations.
Guards from the National Palace accompanied by an armoured truck tried to set up a security perimeter around one of the three stations after police fought off a series of gang attacks.
The unrelenting attacks in Port au Prince have paralysed the country for more than a week and left it with dwindling supplies of basic goods.
