The tiny Midwest town where 'explosion' of Haitians overwhelms schools

Angry residents of a remote city complain of being deluged by migrants from Haiti and elsewhere, putting a strain on schools, hospitals, and other social services.

Locals of Logansport, a city of 18,000 in the center of the state, say students are being muscled out of public schools by an influx of thousands of foreign newcomers.

They say the migrants came for jobs at a local meat-packing plant, but that their kids can't speak English and suck up the attention of teachers, dragging down standards.
