Haiti Police arrest US wanted man

Haiti\'s National Police have arrested a man wanted by police in the United States in connection with the death of his wife and five children, according to a report on www.cananews.net.



Mario Andresol, the head of the Haitian police, said Mesac Damas, 33, was arrested yesterday morning in Tabarre, a community near the Port-au-Prince airport.



Guerline Damas, 32, and her five young children were found dead in an apartment in Naples, Florida, on Friday.



United States authorities said the child victims included three boys, aged five, six and nine, a three year-old girl and an 11-month old baby girl.



Collier County Sheriff Kevin Rambosk described the homicides as \"the most horrific and violent event this community has ever experienced,\" adding that it was \"the worst of the worst\".



Rambosk said Damas left a restaurant in Naples, where he worked as a cook, Thursday night and boarded a flight Friday morning to Haiti from Miami International Airport.



He said Damas\' car was found at the airport and has been secured for evidence.



Damas\'s father, Jean Damas Sr., said his son and his wife had domestic problems, and that his son had called his brother from Haiti.



Collier County sheriff\'s office chief investigator Jim Williams confirmed that \"the couple has a history of violence that has been in the court system.\"



Rambosk noted that Mesac Damas has not been charged with a crime relating to the deaths of his family members.



\"However, today (Monday) the Collier County Probation Department issued an arrest warrant for him for violating probation on a January arrest for domestic violence,\" he added.



Rambosk also said that a team of detectives will be dispatched to Haiti to interview Damas.
