Police in Haiti's capital have fired tear gas as more than one thousand protesters rallied to call for President Rene Preval to step down. The protest was called in Port-au-Prince by opposition groups angry as what they say is Mr. Preval's plan to stay beyond his term. There are concerns elections may not be held before the due date because of records lost in January's earthquake. The quake killed up to 230,000 people and left one million homeless. The country is scheduled to hold elections before February 2011.
