Haitian police use tear gas, live ammunition to break protestsPORT-AU-PRINCE (Reuters) - Haitian police used tear gas and live ammunition on Friday to disperse increasingly violent protesters in the capital, witnesses said, as anger over the economic and political problems in the country grew. Many are calling for President Jovenel Moise to stand down after what they say is a failure to address the myriad of problems. The protests on Friday were among the largest and most violent in months, with witnesses reporting that a special unit of the Haitian National Police was looted and a police vehicle set on fire.
