8 including an Irish missionary are missing after gunmen storm a Haiti orphanage
PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti — Eight people including an Irish missionary and a 3-year-old child remained missing Monday after gunmen stormed an orphanage in Haiti , the latest attack in an area controlled by a powerful collection of armed gangs.
Authorities scrambled to relocate dozens of children and staff from the Saint-Hélène orphanage run by Nos Petits Frères et Sœurs, an international charity with offices in Mexico and France. The orphanage cares for more than 240 children, according to its website.
