Two dead after Tunisian police fire at protesters

At least two people were killed and 17 others were wounded in northern Tunisia on Saturday after police opened fire to quell protesters who threw fire bombs and stones at a police station, an Interior Ministry source said.

"About 1,000 people gathered in a protest in front of El Kef's police station to demand the dismissal of the head of the police in the city for power abuse while exercising his duties," the source told Reuters. (Reuters)
