More than 2,200 homes also were flooded, and there were significant losses in livestock swept away by the Haut-Cap river, authorities said.
Crews were clearing roads across northern Haiti, with additional rain expected in upcoming days.
Heavy rains also were reported in neighboring Puerto Rico, forcing at least a dozen flights scheduled to land in the capital of San Juan to reroute to the Dominican Republic and elsewhere, officials said Friday.
Widespread flooding also was reported in the U.S. territory.
