Riots Kill 15 in Three Days Across Argentina
In three days of food riots across Argentina, 15 people died as inflation and loss of purchasing power fueled unrest. Looting caused three deaths at a Moreno supermarket. nine-year-old Roberto Segovia died from injuries in Rosario, with eleven more fatalities in Rosario and Buenos Aires earlier. Police patrolled major cities, authorities arrested looters, and the government sent free food to hardest hit families as President Alfonsin declared a state of siege.
