Protesters, Police Clash over LA Shooting
-----------------------------------------



In Los Angeles, protesters and police officers have clashed for two
consecutive days over the fatal shooting of a Guatemalan immigrant.
Police say they killed thirty-seven-year-old Manuel Jamines after he
refused to drop a knife and lunged at three officers. Jamines was a day
laborer and the father of three children. On Tuesday, twenty-two people
were arrested after protesters clashed with police officers near where
the shooting occurred.
