Libyan fighting crosses border

FORCES loyal to Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi fought a gun battle with Tunisian troops in a frontier town as Libya’s conflict spilled over its borders.

Pro-Gaddafi forces shelled the town of Dehiba, in Tunisia, damaging buildings and wounding at least one resident, as a squad drove into the town in a truck chasing anti-Gaddafi rebels.

Tunisia summoned Libya’s ambassador to protest against the incursions.
