photos - election protests #2 - part 13

The crowd arrived at the barriers.

They wanted to pass through the barriers and advance to the front of the palace. We pulled back and off to the side.

Tear gas started to launch. Several canisters were fired. We were upwind from the gas.

After the crowd was dispersed the police rearranged the barricades again.

In anger some of the protesters decided they would burn tires. Tires were set up further down the street and journalists were heading there to film the event.
