Wyclef Jean was shot in Haiti over the weekend and the musician says he doesn’t know who did it, or even if he was the intended target.
Jean was attacked as he stepped out of his car in Delmas on March 19. He described the shooting as a bullet “grazing” his hand. Jean was treated at a hospital and released.
“We have spoken to Wyclef, he is ok. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers,” Jean’s management team wrote on his Twitter page.
Jean is in Haiti to work on the presidential campaign of Michel “Sweet Micky” Martelly. Jean had attempted to run for president himself, but was disqualified because he hadn’t lived in the country long enough.
