TL;DR Summary

Author Mitch Albom and nine others, including his wife and volunteers for Have Faith Haiti, were airlifted out of Haiti by U.S. Congressman Cory Mills and Rep. Lisa C. McClain amid the country's escalating violence and political turmoil. The evacuation came after armed gangs attacked an international airport, making it difficult to leave the country.
