Arsonists burned down a Roman Catholic chapel in Haiti, hours after six people claimed responsibility for a massacre at another church. Opposition figures charged that the government was behind the blaze at the Chapel of Immaculate Conception in Port-au-Prince’s Cite Soleil slum. There were no deaths or injuries reported. Late Monday, five men and a woman appeared on television to boast of taking part in the attack Sunday at the St. Jean Bosco Roman Catholic Church in the La Saline slum.
