Kenscoff Commune in Shock

As they planned to do, armed bandits attempted to attack, early this morning, January 27, 2025, this commune, located in the heights of Pétion-Ville.

An armed confrontation with police forces ensued. This also caused a wave of panic in the area and exchanges of gunfire with the criminals who have been encircling the Haitian capital for several months.

According to general intelligence received by our newsroom, armed gangs are planning large-scale operations to try and take control of several areas in order to transform them into lost territories.

Already last weekend, the Kenscoff town hall had implemented a series of restrictions ranging from the cancellation of all cultural activities involving a large number of people, the prohibition of motorcycle circulation from 9 PM, to the imposition of a special schedule for bars and restaurants.

According to a press release, a curfew has been decreed between 10 PM and 5 AM to curb the dishonest intentions of criminals.
