From Times Wire Reports

Striking students clashed with students seeking to end a nine-month-long strike at the National Autonomous University of Mexico, the country’s largest. One person was killed and at least 30 hurt. The street fighting erupted when about 200 students opposed to the strike forced their way onto the campus of a university-affiliated high school in Mexico City. One man died of stab wounds to the chest, said ambulance driver Antonio Ramirez. At least four of the wounded suffered skull fractures. Federal police took control of the school to end the skirmishing.
