Anti-Bush, Anti-Ethanol-Cartel Protests in Brazil 3/8 and 3/9/07
Riot police fired tear gas and beat some protesters with batons after more than 6,000 people held a largely peaceful march through the financial district of Sao Paulo. About 4,000 agents, including Brazilian troops and FBI and U.S. Secret Service officers, are working to secure Bush’s stay in the city that lasts about 24 hours.
Authorities did not disclose the number of injuries in Thursday’s demonstrations, but Brazilian news media said at least 18 people were hurt and news photographs showed injured people being carried away.
