Haitian rebels take another town
Armed Haitian rebels seized a central town and killed the district police chief as embattled President Jean Bertrand Aristide asked for international help in putting down a spreading uprising. The latest killings pushed the death toll since February 5, when rebels seized the northern city of Gonaives, to more than 55. The town of some 200,000 remains in rebel hands.
"I have already asked and I will continue to ask the international community and prime ministers of the region to move faster on this issue," Aristide told reporters late Monday at the presidential palace.
