No outside help in one Port-au-Prince neighborhood, Bostonian reports

The Boston Haitian Reporter talks to Richardson Innocent, who recently returned to Port-au-Prince from Boston:

... Every morning, all the young guys in the neighborhood get up and hit the streets right away, we go through the rubble and we try to get people out. We can still hear the people inside some of them screaming for help, for water.

The bodies are decaying and there's no real aid from anyone yet. We're doing everything by hand ourselves. I've pulled people out, I've carried dead bodies. I've done things I never thought I'd have to do.

I can't imagine. Awful.

I can't imagine. Awful. Hope things get better and some aid is forthcoming.
