Gangs unleash new attack on Haiti’s capital as police vow to hold them back

Associated Press  

PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti — A powerful gang coalition has launched new attacks on Haiti’s capital, driving dozens of families from homes as police vowed Wednesday to hold the gunmen back. “They’re trying to take more areas, but police are there, making sure that doesn’t happen,” Lionel Lazarre, deputy spokesman for Haiti’s National Police, told a press conference. He said police have new plans to fight gangs that already control 85% of Haiti’s capital, but declined to provide details, citing safety reasons. “The risk of the capital falling under gang control is palpable,” O’Neill said Tuesday, even as Haitian police work with a U.N.-backed mission led by Kenyan police to help quell gang violence.
