Liberia

The ceasefire in Liberia that has kept warring factions peaceful for almost two weeks has been broken. U.S. Marines today killed three Liberians near the American Embassy compound in Monrovia and wounded a fourth. The men were shot after fighting broke out in the capital. An American soldier was slightly wounded in today's fighting. Noah Adams talks with NPR's Jennifer Ludden who's in the Liberian capital of Monrovia.
