Residents of Port-au-Prince, Haiti<\/a>, are experiencing growing levels of gang violence, and the situation has led people to fight the issue head-on with vigilante justice.<\/p>\n

As a result, over a dozen suspected gang members were reportedly rounded up and executed before being set on fire.<\/p>\n

Port-au-Prince Residents Banded Together & Served Up Vigilante Justice<\/h3>\n

According to AP News<\/a><\/em>, residents of the Haitian capital city recently beat, killed, and burned numerous suspected gang members. The mob specifically took the suspected criminals from police custody to deliver justice themselves.<\/p>\n

Video footage shows civilians banding together and taking a serious stand against the gang members, who are noted as having been responsible for numerous police killings<\/a> in Haiti.<\/p>\n

???????? A mob in the capital of #Haiti<\/a> beat and burnt 13 suspected gang members to #death<\/a> on Monday after pulling them from #police<\/a> custody at a traffic stop.<\/p>\n

Insecurity there has reached levels similar to countries at #war<\/a>, according to a #UN<\/a> report. <\/p>\n

Haiti Has Faced Significant Struggles Since The Assassination Of President Jovenel Mo\u00efse<\/h3>\n

While on the subject, we should add that the increase in gang activity follows some significant shifts in Haiti.<\/p>\n

On July 7, 2021, Haitian President Jovenel Mo\u00efse was assassinated<\/a> at his home in Port-au-Prince. His wife, Martine Mo\u00efse<\/a>, sustained gunshot wounds during the attack, though she thankfully survived.<\/p>\n

RELATED:\u00a0UPDATE: 4 Additional Suspects Charged In Connection With 2021 Assassination Of Haitian President Jovenel Mo\u00efse<\/a><\/h5>\n

Merely one month later, the nation \u2014 which shares the island of Hispaniola with the Dominican Republic \u2014 was rocked by a 7.2-magnitude earthquake.<\/p>\n

\n<\/blockquote>\n

In the aftermath of this catastrophe, Haitian migrants began flocking to the southern United States border, where they were infamously<\/a> met with violence from whip-wielding Border Patrol agents in Texas.<\/p>\n

Finally, we should add that \u2014 later that same year \u2014 a gang known as the \u201c400 Mawozo<\/a>\u201d kidnapped 17 American and Canadian missionaries while visiting an orphanage. The criminal organization ultimately requested $17M to release all missionaries, as\u00a0The Shade Room<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>previously reported.<\/p>\n

Now,\u00a0AP News<\/a>\u00a0<\/em>notes that gangs have now taken over at least 60% of the city.<\/p>\n

There are no further updates to the situation at this time.<\/p>\n
