A man wanted in the assassination of Haiti's president was arrested in Miami, Florida, on Wednesday after being extradited from the Dominican Republic.
Rodolphe Jaar, who is Haitian, will be the second person to stand trial in the US in the death of Jovenel Moïse in July last year.
A retired Colombian soldier, Mario Palacios, was charged on January 4 for his alleged role in the killing.
Jaar fled Haiti after the attack at the presidential palace and was arrested in the Dominican Republic on January 7.
Jaar is to make an initial court appearance on Thursday to hear the charges against him.
The Miami Herald said Jaar is a businessman who served jail time in the US for cocaine trafficking a decade ago.
