Aircraft heading from Florida to Port-au-Prince landed safely after flight attendant was reportedly grazed by bullet
A Spirit Airlines flight coming into the Haitian capital of Port-au-Prince from the US state of Florida was struck by what appeared to be gang-related gunfire on Monday, forcing the airplane to be diverted to the Dominican Republic.
One person – a flight attendant – was grazed by a bullet, and no other passenger injuries have been reported.
