“The only good Tory is a dead Tory."
GANGS opened fire on a United Nations helicopter, forcing it to land in Port-au-Prince, as violence surged again in Haiti’s capital.
No-one was injured when several rounds of gunfire hit the helicopter, which was carrying three crew members and 15 passengers, according to a UN source.
The helicopter, which had taken off from Port-au-Prince before it was attacked, landed safely, the source said.
