Haiti Revolt February 2004

 
 

Opposition forces destroyed the main police station in      Gonaives on Feb. 10 after running the police out of      town and sieging power.	A little boy on Feb. 17 walks through the charred remains of the main police station in Hinche. The police chief and two other people were killed, and the police complex along with the jail was set on fire after the prisoners were freed.

 
 

Members of the opposition force patrol the streets on Feb. 10.	A series of roadblocks, some of them burning, clutter the       main route through the town of Gonaives on Feb. 10, which       also serves as the main north/south highway. Commercial        trucks and buses have not been allowed to pass through,       cutting off food supplies in the north.
