HIP currently recieving news and horrible video and images of at least a dozen people killed including children at the Citadel (close to Milot in the north) . According to early unconfirmed reports, people were suffocating from tear gas fired by agents of the Milot mayor's office after a fight broke out. It was described as massive amounts of tear gas fired when a crowd of about fifty people panicked with many being trampled underfoot as they my tried to flee. Some people were unable to leave quick enough and were suffocated by gas. Local community leaders are questioning why they used so much tear gas in a dangerous place like the Citadel surrounded by steep drops on many sides. HIP will update as soon as more info is available.
