Haiti's interim Prime Minister Garry Conille was hospitalized in Port-au-Prince on Saturday after suffering a respiratory emergency, AFP reported citing a government source.

"He had an asthma attack. He has doctors at his bedside," the source said on condition of anonymity, adding the prime minister could be evacuated abroad for treatment. 

Conille was named interim prime minister in late May by a transition council.
