Rescue At The Top Of The World.
ROMANS: Happening now, a daring rescue operation at the top of the world. It appears to be a success. Helicopter pilots are risking their lives at the peak of Mt. Everest to rescue all of the stranded climbers from the highest point on the planet. CNN's Erin McLaughlin live for us this morning -- Erin.</s>ERIN MCLAUGHLIN, CNN CORRESPONDENT: That's right, Christine. Amidst utter devastation, a glimmer of good news, the last of those stranded climbers in the upper reaches of Mt. Everest have been safely evacuated by a chopper back to base camp. That is according to a group of climbers I've been speaking to this morning. They are being brought to a base camp suffering from utter devastation after that incredible avalanche swept through the camp. I was speaking to a 17-year-old from Boulder, Colorado, by the name of Matthew Moniz, who described to me how he hid behind a rock as that avalanche swept through, really devastating the camp. He said that the entire camp came together and the after of that avalanche yesterday to try to help and rescue the injured and sadly recover the dead. At least 17 killed in that avalanche, including four Americans. Moniz told me how he spent the day bringing the injured to a makeshift clinic, a makeshift clinic because the real clinic had been completely wiped out. Now Moniz said the priority for many climbers there is to get out of the area. They are hoping the international airport opens to international traffic shortly so that he can go home.</s>ROMANS: All right, Erin McLaughlin, thank you for that so much.

I'm in Baltimore. There's a state of emergency in effect here right now coming well after Baltimore fell victim to marauding rioters and looters. Over two dozen arrests, 15 police officers injured, cars and businesses, as you can see on your screen, just torched all day, all night. The worst day of violence reserved for the day that Freddie Gray was being buried after apparently having been injured while in police custody over a week ago. That is the situation here. Now, 5,000 reinforcements from neighboring states have been brought in to help control the situation, which has been the ugliest rioting in Baltimore since the '60s. Schools in Baltimore today shut down. The mayor now imposing a curfew 10:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m., the big question is can authorities enforce it? And it's a legit question after what we saw last night, sirens all day, through the darkness, signaling the --
