11 Inmates Dead after Prison Escape in Haiti

In the northern island nation of Haiti, inmates who staged a protest in a prison in the town of Saint-Marc escaped from the prison. Eleven of the escapees lost their lives when police intervened with guns and the prison was taken under control again.

Authorities said locals should be on the alert for escaped prisoners.

Last year, 185 prisoners died in Haitian prisons and it was stated that most of the deaths were due to diseases related to malnutrition.
