Hip-hop singer Wyclef Jean says he was grazed by a bullet in the hand when he stepped out of his car in Haiti to make a phone call.
Joe Mignon, senior program director for Jean's Yele Foundation, says Jean was shot in the hand after 11 p.m. local time Saturday March 19, 2011 in the city of Delmas, just outside Port-au-Prince.
Wyclef Jean told The Associated Press he had just left the car Saturday night when he heard gunfire. Jean says the next thing he noticed, there was blood on his shirt and sneakers.
He told the AP in a telephone interview Sunday that he has no idea who fired or whether the rounds were targeting him.
He says a doctor treated him at a hospital and he is taking antibiotics.
Jean says the shooting happened in the capital of Port-au-Prince. He says a driver and the hip-hop singer known as FanFan were with him.
