   PORT-AU-PRINCE, Feb 13 (AP) -- U.N. peacekeepers opened fire Monday on
Haitians protesting election results, killing at least one and wounding
four, witnesses said, as flaming roadblocks paralyzed this city.
   Associated Press journalists saw the body of a man in the street in the
Tabarre neighborhood, a T-shirt bearing the image of popular candidate Rene
Preval soaked in blood. Witnesses said Jordanian U.N. peacekeepers opened
fire on them, killing two and wounding four. The body of the second victim
was not at the scene.
