Dominican authorities have intercepted a shipment of high-powered firearms and ammunition, exposing a sophisticated smuggling route supplying weapons to Haitian gangs wreaking havoc in the country.
The cargo, which came from Miami, was declared to contain household goods such as tires and refrigerators but actually included a military-grade Barrett .50 caliber sniper rifle, an Uzi machine gun, and thousands of rounds of ammunition, the Miami Herald reported.
