Peaceful Protest Turns Deadly 140 Killed
More than 140 people have been killed in Urumqi, the capital of China's Xinjiang province after deadly clashes between rioters and police.
The unrest began Sunday with what some witnesses described as a peaceful protest by as many as a thousand Uighurs, the Muslim ethnic minority in the region. Several reports say that police and anti-riot troops tried to disperse the crowd of protesters, and the demonstrators refused to leave.
