Turmoil Flairs as Bolivian Snipers Fire in La Paz
In La Paz today snipers fired on soldiers and police in the capital's manufacturing district. At least one person died and six were wounded, including two women, amid escalating clashes as the military junta moves to occupy tin mines. The government says Mina Kami and Milluni are now military zones with troops in control. The strike and unrest sparked deportations and a failed assassination attempt on President Barrientos, who escaped unharmed but lost a guard.
