[0:01] We need help. That's all we need.
[0:04] >> I'm Jeff Glor in Haiti. Frustration and
[0:06] anger is growing on the streets of Porta
[0:09] Prince tonight as desperately needed aid
[0:11] is still not getting to most of the
[0:13] earthquake survivors. With at least a
[0:16] 100,000 dead, the landscape of death is
[0:19] staggering and saddening. In Washington,
[0:22] President Obama recruits two former
[0:24] presidents to help coordinate American
[0:26] donations to the relief effort.
[0:27] Responding to a disaster must be the
[0:29] work of all of us.
[0:31] >> And here in Haiti, CBS News's Dr.
[0:33] Jennifer Ashton responds to an urgent
[0:35] call trying to save a baby's life.
[0:38] >> Anybody have trauma shears?
[0:45] >> This is the CBS Evening News with Jeff
[0:49] Glor reporting tonight from Porta
[0:51] Prince, Haiti.
[0:54] >> Good evening. 4 days after Hades
[0:56] devastating earthquake, signs of fraying
[0:58] nerves and tempers are increasing
[1:00] tonight. Here is the very latest. Hades
[1:03] prime minister today put the death toll
[1:04] at 100,000 at a minimum. US officials
[1:08] report 15 American citizens are
[1:10] confirmed dead. A mob estimated at a
[1:13] thousand people looted stores and houses
[1:15] in downtown Port of Prince this
[1:16] afternoon. Secretary of State Hillary
[1:19] Clinton arrived in Haiti today to review
[1:21] relief efforts.
[1:23] We are focused on providing humanitarian
[1:26] assistance, water, food, medical help to
[1:31] those who are suffering.
[1:34] >> 3,600 US military personnel are on the
[1:37] ground in Haiti now. 10,000 are expected
[1:40] by Monday. 180 tons of relief supplies
[1:44] have arrived. Getting them out to the
[1:46] people is an urgent priority, as we saw
[1:49] today firsthand.
