The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) issued a warning to American citizens not to go to Haiti amid a surge of violence and kidnapping.

“While we understand that there are strong ties between Haiti and South Florida, before traveling there one should consider the trauma and financial costs of being kidnapped not only to themselves but to their family and friends as well,” FBI Supervisory Special Agent Liz Santamaria told the Miami Herald this week.
