‘ROUND THE WAY: WYCLEF JEAN SHOT IN THE HAND IN HAITI

Wyclef Jean was grazed by a bullet in his native Haiti around 11p.m. local time Saturday as he and his entourage, including rapper Busta Rhymes, rode through the nation’s capital of Port-au-Prince.

Wyclef was treated for the gunshot wound at a local hospital and released a couple of hours later. A rep for the hip hop star/political activist said, “He’s fine now.” No one else was injured.

Wyclef, who announced his bid in August, dropped out later that month following Haiti’s Provisional Electoral Council’s rejection of his bid. He was in Haiti to show his support for Michel Martelly as he takes on former First Lady Mirlande Manigat. The results of the runoff are expected April 16.
