Wyclef Jean shot in hand in Port Au Prince, Haiti

Yesterday I read that Haiti-born american musician and record producer ,former member of  the hip hop group the Fugees Wyclef Jean was shot in hand in Haiti capital Port Au Prince.
Fortunately the injury was not serious the wound was superficial, you can read about it here .

I had a oportunity to photograph Wyclef Jean in Port Au Prince this January on the anniversary of 2010 earthquake. 
I was in front of the ruins of Notre Dame Cathedral, Port Au Prince. When some SUV escorted by Police and bodyguards arrived. I didn't really know what is going on, but as I felt tension in crowd rises I started shooting chaotic snapshots. 

Then Wyclef Jean came out from nowhere.



In this kind of typical Haitian chaos it is clear that something may go wrong.
 



And after his speach someone tried to steal my wallet, I managed to caught him by his hand :-)) 
but this is another story...
