16. Calling it suicide now:
UN commander in Haiti dead in apparent suicide: UN

The Brazilian commander of the UN mission in Haiti was found dead in an apparent suicide, the mission announced.

General Urano Teixeira da Matta Bacellar "was found dead in his room from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound," according to a report from the UN Stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH).

A military source with the mission told AFP on condition of anonymity that the general had shot himself through the mouth.

Aldunate Herman took over as interim military commander of MINUSTAH, just hours after Da Matta Bacellar was found dead, according to Chile's defense ministry.
