NPR ran a story this evening on All Things Considered.  It's a "profile"
more
than a news story, a narrowly focused look at a few local individuals and
not
really about the current situation per se.

This URL will take you to the audio link, where you'll need either Real
Player
or Windows Media to hear the segment.

Haitian Gangs Combat Demonstrators
from All Things Considered, Tuesday , February 10, 2004
In Haiti, protests for and against the government of President Jean
Bertrande
Aristide have become a daily occurrence. And so have attacks on
demonstrators by
armed gangs called "chimere" in Creole. NPR's Gerry Hadden met one gang
leader
inside Port-au-Prince's vast seaside slum called Cite Soleil, and has this
profile of a chimere and his neighborhood.
