Officials say gunmen have attacked a motorcade carrying Chile's ambassador to Haiti, wounding two people and leaving three missing.

Patricio Utreras was visiting a project run by Fundacion America Solidaria, a clean water NGO in Croix-des-Bouquets on Wednesday alongside his wife and a number of NGO workers when five unknown men armed with AK-47s descended on the delegation.

Chile's Ministry of Foreign Affairs says Chilean security agents repelled the attack. The ambassador's driver was hit by a bullet in the wrist and an America Solidaria official was also lightly wounded.

America Solidaria said a Haitian driver for the charity and two Haitian government officials were missing. It didn't provide details.
