Sunday morning everyone was freaking out about reports that Wyclef Jean was shot in the hand over in Haiti as residents got ready to vote for a new president. Now cops say Wyclef is lying!
Jean claims a bullet grazed his hand as he stepped out of a car to make a phone call, but local police claim he was only injured by glass.
“The way I can explain it is that the bullet grazed me in my right hand,” says Wyclef, who has been in Haiti campaigning for Michel (Sweet Micky) Martelly. “I heard blow, blow, blow and I just looked at my hand.”
Cops say balogny, he only suffered a minor cut to his hand from glass in an apparent accident.
Vanel Lacroix, police chief in Petionville where Jean is staying told Reuters, “We met with the doctor who saw him and he confirmed Wyclef was cut by glass”. WOW! so why the hell would he lie like that? I am shaking my damn head! Back to the story.
Haitians are choosing between a former first lady and a popular musician Sunday in the pivotal presidential runoff vote for a nation still recovering from a devastating earthquake and political turmoil.
Former law professor and first lady Mirlande Manigat faces singer Michel Martelly in the second round of presidential elections. Final results of the runoff will be released on April 16.
In September, Jean officially ended his bid to be president of Haiti a month after election officials ruled that he was ineligible to run. Jean previously vowed to fight the Haitian electoral council’s ruling that he was not a resident of the country.
His eligibility had been in question after claims that he had not lived in Haiti for five consecutive years prior to the election, a requirement in the nation’s constitution. Check out what happened with the elections in Haiti.
