Haitians fear for safety in Ohio after Trump’s pet theft claims
During this week’s debate, Donald Trump claimed that Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, were stealing and eating pets. This accusation, though debunked by the city’s leaders as baseless, has incited threats of violence and bomb scares, creating fear within the local Haitian community. Springfield’s leaders urge calm, but tensions remain high as the controversy continues to escalate.
