PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti, Sept 5 (Reuters) - Haitian police found 495 corpses when muddy floodwaters began to recede on Friday from the port city of Gonaives following days of heavy rain from Tropical Storm Hanna, the town's police commissioner said on Friday. "The weather is calm now and we are discovering more bodies. We have found 495 bodies so far and there are 13 people missing," commissioner Ernst Dorfeuille told Reuters. "The smell of the dead is very unpleasant in Gonaives. The death toll could be even higher." (Reporting by Joseph Guyler Delva, Editing by Michael Christie and Todd Eastham)
