IN HAITI . . . CLASHES AS U.S. TROOPS WALK THE LINE
Aristide supporters in Port-au-Prince jeered at Haitian police, who fired tear gas and reportedly clubbed a man to death as U.S. troops looked on, under orders not to interfere. U.S. forces on the island, meanwhile, increased to 6,000, including about 1,800 Marines who moved ashore at Cap-Haitien in the north. BTW: A U.S. official confirmed to the Associated Press that American commandos had been in Haiti for weeks, set to kidnap Haiti's de facto ruler, Lieut. General Raoul Cedras, during an invasion.
