Rioters Loot Da Nang Catholic Hamlet As Troops Watch
Buddhist rioters looted a Da Nang Catholic community as South Vietnamese troops stood by. Homes burned, two women killed, a man hanged with barbed wire, and villagers fled by sampans. U.S. officers urged action, but fighting limited to the hamlet near Da Nang. Catholic refugees from Hanoi and local fishermen made up most residents.
