A U.S. citizen, Maureen Neilson, 26 years old, was killed as she exited
a Sogebank office in Port-au-Prince on Friday, March 23. It appears that
it was an attempted robbery. Maureen had no money with her at the time
because she had not brought her passport into the bank with her. She was
shot in the neck and died en route to the hospital.

Maureen first worked in Haiti for the orphanage Lefanmi Selavi several
years ago. She has recently been working with another orphanage in
Delmas.
