PORT-AU-PRINCE (Reuters) - Doctors Without Borders (MSF) said on Wednesday that two patients were killed when its ambulance was stopped and attacked in Haiti's capital Port-au-Prince.

The MSF staff said they were violently attacked after "members of a vigilante group and law enforcement officers" stopped the ambulance.
