Haiti’s future even more uncertain after brazen slaying of president
The assassination of Jovenel Moïse stunned a nation grappling with some of the Western Hemisphere’s highest poverty, violence and political instability.
Port-au-Prince | An already struggling and chaotic Haiti stumbled into an uncertain future on Thursday, reeling from the assassination of President Jovenel Moïse followed by a reported gunbattle in which authorities said police killed four suspects in the murder, detained two others and freed three officers being held hostage.
Officials pledged to find all those responsible for the pre-dawn raid on Moïse’s house early on Wednesday that left the president shot to death and his wife, Martine Moïse, critically wounded. She was flown to Miami for treatment.
