Anti-government protest turns violent in Haiti
‘Haitian police forces have clashed with demonstrators calling for the resignation of President Michel Martelly.
Saturday’s peaceful demonstration turned violent after police arrested two protesters they accused of being thieves in Haiti’s capital city Port-au-Prince.
Police used teargas and fired rubber bullets to disperse protesters, who were hurling rocks at them.
“Since Mr. Martelly came to power, they have been stealing all the reserves of the government… Martelly took everything,” said opposition member Calistin Jhonny during the protest.’
