Wyclef Jean only “grazed” by bullet
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 22 March 2011
Wyclef Jean has commented on the “superficial injuries” he suffered this weekend after a bullet “grazed” his hand on Saturday night.
As previously reported, the former Fugee was injured in a shooting incident in his home country of Haiti the night before the presidential elections he had originally hoped to stand in. The injury was not significant and Jean left hospital the next day. His fellow Fugee tweeted yesterday: “Everyone can relax Wyclef is fine… They can’t stop us not one bullet or a machine gun!”
Meanwhile, police in Haiti have denied Jean was shot at all, with one police chief telling Reuters he had been told by doctors that the singer had cut his hand on some glass.
