3rd fatality in anti-UN riots in Haiti
17 November 2010

PORT-AU-PRINCE - A MAN was shot dead and several others injured on Wednesday in fresh rioting in northern Haiti, as protesters clashed with UN peacekeepers blamed for the cholera outbreak, a police source said.

Aid workers complained that protests were again holding up relief operations in the troubled second city of Cap Haitien, while a top UN official said the demonstrations were being ’orchestrated’.

Two local Haitians were killed in riots in Cap Haitien on Monday, one shot by a UN peacekeeper as protesters set a police station and vehicles ablaze and threatened to torch a UN compound.

A police source told AFP a third person was shot dead in fresh rioting in the city on Wednesday afternoon. It wasn’t clear if the latest fatality was a UN peacekeeper, a member of the Haitian police, or a protester.
