Turkey bars protestors' wedding party at park
None
Police on Saturday fired water cannon and tear gas in downtown Istanbul to disperse anti-government demonstrators after barring them from entering a park where they had hoped to celebrate the wedding of a couple who met during last month's widespread protests.
The clash occurred after police closed Gezi Park near Istanbul's landmark Taksim Square, then forced demonstrators to a pedestrian street and fired the water cannon, according to the private Dogan news agency. No casualties were immediately reported. (AP)
