PORT-AU-PRINCE, HAITI – Police on Wednesday pledged to crack down on unrelenting gang violence that has paralyzed areas of Haiti’s capital. They plead with Haitians to end a string of grisly vigilante killings.

The appeal came after an angry crowd on Monday killed at least 13 suspected gang members who police had arrested, with video and pictures shared on social media suggesting an even greater number since then have died after being stoned and set on fire.

A spokesman for Haiti’s national police at a news conference noted that police are mobilized and anti-gang operations will continue.
