While the Haitian authorities said the official death toll from the 7.2 magnitude earthquake had reached 2,189, the locals think the death toll is more than the official figures being reported.
This has hit the country at a time when the locals were still recovering from the 2010 quake that killed more than 200,000 people.
In the seaside city, many people have been spotted sleeping on roads on mattresses as several buildings and homes crumbled down in the deadly quake.
The local patrol police officers have said there has been no immediate reports or any further reported deaths or damage in the area.
Officials have claimed that more than 2,200 people have lost their lives and thousands of others have been injured in the 7.2 magnitude earthquake.
