- PORT-AU-PRINCE (AFP) - US
Marines fought several gunbattles overnight in the Haitian capital, including
one outside the prime minister's residence, suspected to have left two
dead, a US military spokesman said.
-
- US members of the international security force in Haiti
thought they saw two dead on the ground after one clash but when they returned
to the scene found no bodies, Major Richard Crusan, a US military spokesman,
told AFP.
-
- "There were three incidents last night where gunmen
fired at Marines who in all three cases returned fire," Crusan said.
-
- He added that it was possible the bodies were taken removed
between the time of the fire fight and when Marines returned.
-
- US forces suffered no casualties, said the spokesman.
