The Brazilian commander of the United Nations peacekeeping force in Haiti was found dead on the balcony of his hotel room on Saturday, UN officials said.

Brazil's state news agency said Lt. Gen. Urano Teixeira Da Matta Bacellar was the victim of "a firearms accident." The Reuters news agency quoted UN officials as saying the general had apparently shot himself in the head.
