Grim scene on the ground in Haiti
The first U.S. Navy ship arrived in Haiti yesterday morning. A large aircraft carrier is set to arrive off the coast today, with 14 helicopters and relief supplies. But right now, the situationon the ground is grim. We hear from Christina Boyle a reporter for The Daily News who landed in Port-au-Prince last night.
We also talk to Takeaway contributor Femi Oke, who spent the evening with Haitian immigrants in Flatbush, Brooklyn.
