JOHANNESBURG - Police fired stun grenades to disperse students protesting at a Johannesburg university on Tuesday, as nationwide demonstrations over high tuition fees entered their third week.
Fewer than 100 students had gathered and started singing outside Wits University's main hall before officers moved in to enforce a ban on public gatherings, said witnesses.
Police and private security guards in riot gear massed in the city-centre campus through the morning. Police said two students were arrested at Wits - full name, the University of the Witwatersrand - for public order offences.
