The security situation in Haiti continues to deteriorate in Haiti with the attack of armed bandits against the National Police Academy this Tuesday, March 5, 2024, according to Lionel Lazarre, general coordinator of the National Union of Haitian Police Officers, contacted by the editorial staff. The policeman calls out an SOS.
The head of the police union informs that the police academy located in Frères is currently the subject of an attack by armed bandits. According to him, there were intense exchanges of fire between police officers and the attackers.
The exact details of the attack currently remain unclear. The exchanges of fire are currently creating a climate of panic among the students and staff of the Academy.
SYNAPOHA, which claims that agents are trying to resist, did not specify the instigators of this attack. However, it must be remembered that the gang led by Vitelhomme Innocent still operates in the vicinity of the National Police Academy.
Last week, Vitelhomme’s men had already broken the academy wall using a bulldozer.
