'Chaos in Haiti......again: ‘Anti-Crime' Protesters Burn U.S. Christian Group's Plane
2022-04-01
[Breitbart] Haitians protesting against a recent spike in crime in the Haitian city of Les Cayes on Tuesday stormed a local airport and burned a small jet owned by a U.S.-based Christian missionary group, Reuters reported.

"The protesters entered the local airport in Les Cayes even though police fired tear gas at the group, according to a video of the incident filmed by online media group Cayes Infos," Reuters relayed on March 29 after reviewing the footage.

"The video shows dozens of people approaching the plane and pushing it down the tarmac. The plane is later seen on a street, apparently near the airport, where it was set on fire," the news agency detailed.

Agape Flights, the missionary group that owned the doomed airplane, confirmed the incident in a statement posted on its website March 29.

The press release read, in part:

Rioting broke out in the Les Cayes, Haiti area on March 29, 2022, including the airport.

Due to the rioting, Agape’s Chieftain aircraft has been destroyed, but our team on the ground is safe. We are preparing to bring them back to the U.S. safely.
