Gunfire as Powell visits Haiti's presidential palace

quote:
Gunshots were exchanged outside Haiti's presidential palace in Port-au-Prince as U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell held meetings there Wednesday, U.S. State Department officials said.
[...]
A palace security officer said shots were fired from a car passing outside the palace around 10:50 a.m. ET and that United Nations security forces ringing the palace returned fire.

Shortly thereafter, several U.N. tanks arrived to patrol the road in front of the palace.
