Thousands protest in Hubei Province
From AFP, via Taipei Times:
More than 10,000 residents in central China broke windows and smashed vehicles during a violent protest after police used dogs to disperse a smaller demonstration, according to reports yesterday.
The incident began last Thursday when hundreds of residents from the city of Daye in Hubei Province, angry over a plan by the larger city of Huangshi to annex it, demonstrated outside the Huangshi government office, the Hong Kong-based Wen Wei Po newspaper said.
Officers from the paramilitary People’s Armed Police turned police dogs on the protesters and four were bitten, the newspaper said.
