Foreign hit squad killed Haiti's president, police say

A hit squad composed mostly of retired Colombian soldiers assassinated Haiti's President Jovenel Moïse earlier this week, police say.

The group included 26 Colombians and two Americans of Haitian origin, police chief Léon Charles told reporters. Eight of the suspects are still on the run, while 17, including the two Americans, have been arrested.

The remaining suspects were shot dead during gun battles with the police in the capital, Port-au-Prince. His wife Martine was seriously injured and has been flown to Florida for treatment, where she is said to be in a stable condition.

It is not yet clear who planned the attack or what motivated it. Haiti's interim Prime Minister Claude Joseph, however, told the media that the 53-year-old president may have been targeted because he was fighting "oligarchs" in the country.
