3 Killed, 14 Injured During Zulu March
Three people were killed and 14 wounded--some by stray gunfire--during a Zulu nationalist march held to commemorate the deaths of more than 50 people at a 1994 protest before the nation’s first all-race elections. Tribal leaders presided Wednesday over 12,000 Zulus who came from township hostels and swarmed Johannesburg’s streets. Violence erupted among some of the marchers traveling to Johannesburg. Speakers at the rally called for justice for the killings in 1994, when security guards at African National Congress headquarters opened fire on approaching Zulu marchers.
