Comité Artisanal Haitien (CAH) had an artisan killed by gang violence last week. Gang violence is rampant in the country, especially Port-au-Prince, as the transitional government tries to get established. "One of CAH's nicest, honest and talented artisan has been killed by gunshot yesterday afternoon while passing in front of a police station in his area. It was by a "stray bullet" while gangsters where shooting at the policemen trying to invade the police station to set it on fire." "Unfortunately, Dieufaite Laguerre was passing on his motocycle, trying to reach his house. A married man devoted to his wife and 3 kids, he was a hardworking artisan and appreciated by all his colleagues and CAH's staff." We are so saddened by this senseless loss of life. Our prayers for safety continue for the people of Haiti and Gisele Fleurant and the artisans of Comité Artisanal Haitien.
