QUEBEC CITY (Reuters) - Protest groups stormed into the security zone
ringing Quebec City's Summit of the Americas on Friday, tearing down
fences and hurling rocks at riot police, who responded with tear gas and
baton charges.

The clashes, involving small groups of black-clad anarchists, took place
blocks from the conference center where leaders from 34 countries were
scheduled to starting the three-day summit later on Friday to discuss
trade and democracy.
