A journalist working for a Montreal-based online radio station was killed Thursday near the Haitian capital, Port-au-Prince, as he prepared to interview a member of an armed group about the murder of a police inspector.
John Wesley Amady, 32, was shot and killed in a “brutal” and “criminal” attack, Francky Attis, chief executive officer of Radio Écoute FM, said Friday.
Wesley Amady was with two other journalists in the Laboule 12 area, when they came under attack, Francky Attis said in an interview, adding that one of the other journalists, Wilguens Louissain, was also killed.
The chief executive officer of Radio Écoute FM said the journalists were working on a story about the killing of a police inspector earlier this month.
