Protests turn deadly
At least two people were killed and dozens injured during large protests across Haiti over alleged misuse of government funds. Police said 11 civilians were injured by bullets and 11 officers by flying rocks. Protesters were demanding more transparency in how the government uses funds from Petrocaribe, an oil assistance program sponsored by Venezuela. An investigation by Haiti’s Senate found that at least 14 former government officials allegedly misused $3.8 billion under the administration of former President Michel Martelly.
