11 armed suspects try to break into Taiwan’s Haiti mission

Taiwan's foreign ministry says Haitian police have arrested 11 armed suspects who tried to break into the its embassy in Port-au-prince. It gave no details of the suspects' identities or a reason for the break-in.

“As for whether the suspects were involved in the assassination of the President of Haiti, that will need to be investigated by the Haitian police,” Foreign Affairs spokesperson Joanne Ou said Taipei. Seventeen suspects have been detained so far in the stunning assassination of Haiti's president, and Haitian authorities say two are believed to hold dual Us-haitian citizenship and Colombia's government says at least six are former members of its army.
