Security forces halted the Paris Olympic torch relay three times as pro Tibet activists clashed with police. Protesters near the Eiffel Tower and on a Seine bridge drew boos, water was thrown, and the flame was extinguished and moved to buses for safety. Police arrested several demonstrators as 3,000 officers guarded the route.
