>> clark: i think they may have gotten phil pressey, and that will d.q. him. wow. big-time play here by denmon. this is a tough shot. a runner. off the dribble, and then a nice job here by taylor. to go right at missouri in transition. that's a case where you're not alert getting back defensively and you are vulnerable to picking up a cheap one. not a lot of contact there as you look at jeff withey, who has been rendered ineffective today in part because of the nature of missouri's style but also the injury to his leg or foot that he suffered early in the game. >> verne: tyshawn taylor is going to be the guy at the line with 8.3 to go. for the day, 5.6. he's only a 66% free-throw shooter over the course of the first 28 games. >> clark: you go back to the

game in columbia, tyshawn had a turnover late -- actually two. one was an offensive foul, one was losing the ball then he missed a couple of free throws that would have positioned kansas perhaps to close that one out, so he's got another opportunity. >> verne: and he shoots two. >> clark: nice to get that first one down. >> verne: kind of crawled over the rim. >> clark: they don't care how it gets in there. >> verne: you've got it. >> clark: i made one against indiana years ago that went the back iron and went to the top of the backboard and went in, in this situation. do you think i care? >> verne: kansas leads. 8.3 remaining. >> clark: defensive substitution here, more length and quickness on the floor for kansas, with kevin young.

if you're missouri, you've got to push it ahead and try to drive it and kick it. but you've got to go faster than this. >> verne: three to go. robinson backs away. no shot. k.u. wins. >> verne: the jayhawks came from 19 down. for clark kellogg, verne lundquist. saying so long from lawrence, kansas. kansas wins it in overtime. captioning by captionmax www.captionmax.com >> verne: at the end of the game. there is the last shot, and it

came after the clock had expired. for the last game, it was kind of fun. goodnight from lawrence. ,,,,,,,,

captioning sponsored by cbs this is the "cbs evening news." >> dubois: good evening. i'm maurice dubois. the u.s. is stepping up security in afghanistan after the killing of two american military officers today by an unknown gub man. the officers were shot in the heavily heavily guarded interior ministry in kabul, whiewl in kunduz to the northeast, three people died in a violent protest outside a u.n. compound. it is all part turmoil since u.s. troops inadvertently burned copies of the koran earlier this week. mandy clark is in kabul. >> reporter: the shooting erupted at the command-and-control center inside afghanistan's ministry of interior. it should have been the most secure location in the building. sources tell cbs news that the

two american officers, a colonel and a major, were shot in the head with a pistol at close range. witnesses heard three shots. a colleague ran to the command center, finding the two dead. the gunman had disappeared. there are reports he was an afghan officer who had earlier argued with the americans. later, the taliban claimed responsibility, saying one of its members had infiltrated the ministry. general john allen, the commander of nato forces in afghanistan, announced he is recalling all nato advisers from government ministries out of security concerns. the advisers are a key part of the american mission here, training afghans to handle their own security as the u.s. aims to complete their withdrawal by 2014. the attack comes on the fifth day of protests across afghanistan. ( gunfire ) on monday, u.s. soldiers accidentally burned copies of the koran, along with regular garbage. a desecration of islam's holy

book. the koran burning has led to the killing of two american soldiers on thursday, 25-year-old army sergeant joshua born of florida, and 22-year-old army corporal timothy conrad, jr., of virginia, were shot dead by an afghan slrn in eastern afghanistan. general allen visited the base personally, warning his men now is not the time for vengeance. maurice. >> dubois: mandy clark, thank you. turning now to syria's uprising. diplomat efforts have so far failed to end the fighting or help the civilians under siege. the assad regime's shelling on the city of homs entered its fourth week. clarissa ward is tracking the store tonight from beirut, lebanon. >> reporter: there was no representit for the people of homs today. heavy shelling continued, destroying homes and lives. black smoke chocked the sky, but not the voices of these

protesters. "we swear to remain peaceful and stand up for our martyrs" they chanted. the international red cross struggled to negotiate the evacuation of the seriously injured from the embattled baba amr area, including two western journalists wounded in wednesday's attack on a makeshift media center. "where are you, friends of syria?" the man behind the camera asked. " bar bab is being shelled as if it did not exist." yesterday's conference was a disappointment for syria's opposition which hoped the international community would offer concrete pledges of support. burhan ghalioun is the head of the sir yoon national council "what we are asking of others is not that they fight our battles," he said. "what we are asking of them is that they support us." part of the reason the help is not arising is the syrian opposition is so fractured, with many different factions, all jockeying for power. inside the country, a multitude

of poorly equipped and loosely organized rebel groups are fighting separate, local battles. we spent time with a group in northern syria that calls itself the syrian liberation army, not to be confused and often at odds with the free syrian army, a group mostly made up of soldiers who have defected from the syrian army. they told us that they are desperate for money, weapons, and training. but with no clear chain of command and no unity among these different groups, it is unlikely that will come any time soon. and that, maurice, is part of the reason why the situation is growing more and more desperate every day. the reality is that these lightly lightly armed, uncoordinated, ragtag groups of fighters are simply no match for the syrian army, which is really crushing them with heavy weapons. >> dubois: okay, clarissa ward tonight, in beirut. thank you very much. in a footnote to last year's killing of osama bin laden in the pakistani city of abbottabad, ulbowessers today

began to demolish the compound in which he was finally tracked down. pakistan says the demolition was delayed until its investigation of the u.s. raid was completed. former south african president nelson mandela is in the hospital tonight. the anti-apartheid icon, who is now 93, underwent a "diagnostic procedure" after being admitted for a long-standing stomach ailment. officials say mandela is comfortable and fully conscious tonight. still to come on tonight's cbs evening news, he lost a handed in the afghan war, so why was evening news, he lost a handed in the afghan war, so why was this army sergeant court-martialed?

2012. a reversal of fortune for mitt romney in michigan. the latest real clear politics average of polls in his home

state shows romney leading rick santorum ahead of tuesday's republican primary. dean reynolds is in detroit. deerng good evening. >> reporter: good evening, maurice. well, the two top contenders here spent the day attacking each other, questioning their conservative values and principles, and see,ingab advantage in the wayneing days of this critical primary campaign. ( applause ) >> we were luck themorning to wake up and see that snow. you know that? >> reporter: aware that a loss in his native state could knock his campaign off the trarkz mitt romney tried to sew doubts about rick santorum's consistency and commitment to conservative principles. >> he was opposed to planned parenthood funding and title 10 but vote for it. he was opposed to no child left behind-- i was in favor of it-- but he opposed it and. >> reporter: and romney noted that santorum had endorsed him back in 2008 as a true conservative. >> he's right-- i'm the

conservative candidate, and what we need in the white house is principled, conservative leadership, and i'll bring it. >> reporter: the former pennsylvania senator fired back, first in st. claire shores, and later in troy. >> it is absolutely laughable to have a liberal governor of massachusetts suggest that i am not in the conservative in this race. are you going to vote for someone who says one thing one day and says anything else that's necessary the next day to win? or are you going to vote for someone you trust. >> reporter: romney mocked santorum's statement in this week's debate that as a member of the senate leadership he tried to be a team player and sometimes voted against his principles to get along. >> this is not time for the politics of the past. this is not time for-- for lifelong pols to explain why they vote in order or that based on what they were asked to do by their fellow colleagues. >> reporter: not to be outdone, can sorm has begun suggesting there may be some collusion between the campaigns of romney and ron paul. >> the coordination that i felt

at that debate the other night was pretty clear. i felt like, you know, messages were being slipped behind my chair and things like that. ( laughter ). it is-- it is pretty remarkable in 20 debates that ron paul has never attacked mitt romney. >> reporter: now, because ron paul and newt gingrich are note really contesting this race, it boils down to a two-man contest, romney versus santorum. and while it's impossible to say who's going to win, the loser will be badly damaged. maurice. >> dubois: dean reynolds tonight in detroit. thank you. we'll be right back get smart about your weight.

intelligence officials say a u.s. drone crashed today in north waziristan near the afghan border. taliban militants say they shot it down but a u.s. official tells reuters that claim is false. a court-martial in north carolina that ended this week illustrates how the war in afghanistan changed the life of an american soldier. as national security correspondent david martin reports, the serious wound the sergeant suffer on the battle field proved to be only the beginning. >> reporter: after 21 years in uniform, most of it in special forces, sergeant first class andrew mccaffrey is a broken soldier. >> i've been stripped of my special forces it credentials, and now i have a-- basically a

very low-level job. you take the hand off here. >> reporter: eight years ago in afghanistan, mccaffrey lost his right hand to a defective grenade. he fought a medical discharge, learned to shoot again, and became the first soldier to lose part of an arm and return to a war zone. three more times to afghanistan. he never found glory there, just the daily grind of military operations. but even so, he seemed the epitome of perseverance. being a soldier is a hands-on job. >> yes, sir, it is. >> reporter: and you're-- you're down one hand. >> no, i'm not. one just works differently from the other. >> reporter: once he was home, mccaffrey's perseverance turned to anger. in this army document, his commanding officer detailed multiple violent outoutbursts. mccaffrey was described as a significant risk for suicide and homicide and said to have poor insight, judgment, and impulse control, and appears to also have antisocial personality

disorder. mccaffrey had gone from being a poster boy to rehabilitation to a problem child. sometimes your own worst enemy? >> yeah, sometimes. my mouth can get me in some trouble. i won't deny that. >> reporter: it was his mouth that got him confined in this state psychiatric hospital for four days. >> if you don't stop busting chops i'm going to go home and blow my freaking brains out because you're driving me crazy. that was the statement i made. >> reporter: he insists he wasn't. >> i would never kill myself because i'm not going to give certain people the satisfaction. it is that simple. >> he is not the most pleasant person in the world. he is abrasive. he is direct. he is not gentle in any way. >> reporter: john nickerson has been mccaffrey's attorney since this incident in may, 2009. that's mccaffrey in the camouflage shorts at a gas station going toe to toe with a hulking ex-con. it's not shown, but mccaffrey pulled a knife, inflicting a small wound, which required no stitches. >> i utilizeed the force they deemed necessary to protect

myself. >> reporter: the district attorney's office dropped the case for lack of evidence. but the army court-martialed him on a litany of charges -- assault, obstruction of justice, disobeying an order, carrying a concealed firearm, lying to a superior, driving under the influence, even missing a mental health appointment. nickerson believes there's a simple explanation for mccaffrey's behavior-- traumatic brain injury. >> you just need to extend your arm, look at the palm of your hand. that's how far away from sergeant mccaffrey's brain the hand grenade was when it exploded. >> reporter: whatever broke mccaffrey, his war wound or his own personality, he's leaving the army. the career of a soldier who served more than two years in afghanistan came to an ignominious end this week. he was found guilty of obstruction of justice and carrying a concealed firearm and was demoted one range. which will cost him $300 a month in retirement pay.

david martin, cbs news, fayetville, north carolina. >> dubois: and next, small lewis owners turning to small banks for help. in just a moment >> dubois: gas prices are

surging. over just the past week they

jumped 14 cents to a national average $3.67 a gallon, the highest ever for this time of year. a year ago, pump prices averaged $3.29 a gallon. despite those economic headwinds, small businesses have started to hire, much of it funded over the past year we small community banks, rather than the traditional big banks. as mark strassmann reports, the key to boom or bust could be right down the street. >> this is red the steak house. >> reporter: brad friedlander is a month away from opening two restaurants under one roof in boca raton. it's a big place. >> it's a monster. >> reporter: but america's credit squeeze almost put this project under before it had a chance to succeed. friedlander had done well owning restaurants in cleveland, and in 2008, was about to open another one in miami. then the economy tanked. his investors fled. >> i lost $2 million in investors in a $3 million

project. >> reporter: none of the big banks in cleveland would lend him a nickel. >> they really wouldn't even consider it. >> reporter: the big banks that wouldn't take your application, some of their executives were your customers? >> of all the big banks. >> reporter: what did they say to you when they came into the restaurant after not even having taken your car, essentially? >> they don't think anything of it. i mean, they're bankers. >> reporter: dell duncan gave friedlander a lifeline. he opened ohio commerce bank in cleveland just before the recession hit. it's a community bank dedicated to small business with an old-fashioned charter-- make lones to people not credit scores. >> we look at every customer individually. we go out to see them and that allows us to do more alones than a bitioner bank. >> reporter: they still take risks and make loans the big

banks run away from. >> the bank unilaterally, decides that their industry is just not one they want to lend to anymore and they actuallyraphy. >> reporter: duncan's ohio commerce bank lent friedlander $3.5 million. he paid off his investors, expanded into florida, and created 350 restaurant jobs. >> they showed us everything. they worked with us on a daily basis. >> reporter: can they save the business? >> yes. >> reporter: would any of those jobs have been created without this alone? >> no. >> reporter: none of them? >> none. >> reporter: all because a small bank looked at a small business man and saw a big opportunity. mark strassmann, miami. >> dubois: that is the cbs evening news. later on cbs, "48 hours mystery." captioning sponsored by cbs captioned by media access group at wgbh access.wgbh.org [ male announcer ] are you paying more and more for cable
