Police investigates killing of two Haitian brothers

The Police has arrested 14 persons, including Dominicans and Haitians, in the northwestern province of Santiago Rodriguez, in regards to the death of two Haitian brothers. The brothers appear to have been beaten to death with a wooden stick. The bodies were sent to Santiago for an autopsy, and the principal suspect is another Haitian, Santiel. The brothers, Mixto and Mistico Domeysi (20 and 26 years old) worked in a government housing construction project, where they were found within a house under construction, 10 hours after the death. The police says robbery is not likely to have been the motive as RD$200 and several Haitian coins were found on their bodies.
