Wyclef Jean Shot In Haiti, Released From Hospital

PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti — A spokesman for Wyclef Jean says the hip-hop star has been released from a hospital after being treated for a gunshot wound to his hand.

Joe Mignon, senior program director for Jean's Yele Foundation, says Jean was shot in the hand after 11 p.m. local time Saturday in the city of Delmas, just outside Port-au-Prince.

Jean's brother, Samuel, confirmed the musician was shot. Neither he nor Mignon had additional details. The shooting comes on the eve of presidential elections in Haiti. Jean is supporting fellow musician Michel Martelly.

Shot in the hand huh? Either the shooter was really bad, or.... it was a warning shot. The article doesn't mention what hand he was shot in. I'd be curious to find that out, as well as what his handedness is, right or left? Conspiracy mind always at work

Bad news for a musician. Well, he did go down there to help people. Maybe they wanted more.
