Thousands in Mexico City protest corruption

MARCO UGARTE Associated Press PROTESTERS charge at police during a youth antigovernment march in Mexico City on Saturday.

Several thousand people took to the streets of Mexico City to protest crime, corruption and impunity in a demonstration organized by members of Generation Z, but the march ended with strong backing from older supporters of opposition parties.

The demonstration Saturday was mostly peaceful, though it ended with some young people clashing with the police.

Protesters attacked officers with stones, fireworks, sticks and chains, grabbing police shields and other equipment. The capital’s security secretary, Pablo Vazquez, said 120 people were injured, including 100 police officers. Twenty people were arrested.
