Police break up 'cartoons' protest with tear gas, batons
Police fired tear gas and baton-charged about 7,000 students protesting against the Prophet Mohammed cartoons today in north-western Pakistan.
The protest began in the morning when students began marching to universities in Peshawar, urging people to join their demonstration. The crowd threw stones at a Edwards College, breaking windows and causing other damage at the prestigious school founded by Christian missionaries during British colonial rule.
