After a few days of respite, criminal groups have resumed their activities and gunfire echoes across the metropolitan region. On Thursday, March 14, shots were fired at the Toussaint Louverture International Airport. The incident occurred late in the morning while workers were repairing a section of the fence, pierced by criminals. The workers, panicked, fled the site. According to Lionel Lazarre, a member of the Departmental Operation and Intervention Brigade (BOID), was injured by gunfire during the incident. The officer was hit by a stray bullet while he was in the courtyard of the General Directorate of the PNH, located near the airport, Lazarre clarified. Earlier in the day, a fire broke out at the Port-au-Prince Civil Prison on Rue du Centre. Thick clouds of smoke were visible from a distance. The prison has been unguarded by the police since the armed gang attack followed by the escape of several thousand inmates on the night of March 2-3, 2024. No prisoners were present at the time of the fire as they had all been previously transferred (less than a hundred) to other police stations in the afternoon of March 3. For now, the cause of the fire remains unknown. Thursday evening, witnesses reported to Le Nouvelliste armed attacks against the neighborhoods of Vivy Mitchell, Bellevue, and Belvil. Sporadic gunfire was heard there. Many families were seen fleeing their homes early in the evening. These residents had experienced a nightmarish evening the day before. Indeed, automatic weapon fire punctuated the night of March 13. It was heard in the vicinity of the police academy, the main road of Frères, Belvil, and Vivy Mitchel. The gunfire lasted almost all evening. The newspaper learned that officers of the PNH, residents, etc., confronted the members of the kraze Baryè gang. Witnesses also reported gunfire in Nazon, Delmas 19, Delmas 30, etc., still on Wednesday evening. This resurgence of violence comes as political groups are working to establish a Presidential Council for the country. Almost all coalitions have already submitted the name of their representative to the regional organization. Guy Phillipe, Jean Charles Moïse, and Jimmy Chérisier have each rejected this Caricom proposal outright.
