Senator Fires Shots In The Air During Haiti Protest

Senator Jean-Marie Ralph Féthière fired shots in the air when confronted by protesters on Monday in Port-au-Prince, injuring two people. On the same day, Senator Willot Joseph was also seen brandishing a firearm when confronted by another group of protesters. Months of power outages and fuel shortages have been causing increasing unrest in the country. Haiti is in a dispute with an American energy supplier, after its long-standing deal with Venezuela collapsed due to ongoing unrest in the South American nation.
