Tuesday, November 21: According to APPO, yesterday's march and following street battle that began after police threw rocks, resulted in 15 detentions and 56 injuries, 3 of which are severe head injuries. Early morning on Tuesday, at 12:30, armed supporters of the PRI party ransacked and burned tents at the APPO encampment in Santa Domingo. During the day 2 people were detained at the Cinco Senores barricade while government forces were attempting to take it down, and it is reported that one of these two has a gunshot wound and was severely beaten.
