Yemeni protesters storm U.S. embassy in Sanaa: witnesses - Yahoo! News
SANAA (Reuters) - Hundreds of Yemeni demonstrators stormed the U.S. embassy compound in Sanaa on Thursday in protest at a film they consider blasphemous to Islam, and clashes with security forces killed at least one person and injured 15 others.WTF is with this "firing in the air" crap?
Young protesters, shouting "We sacrifice ourselves for you, Messenger of God", smashed windows of the security offices outside the embassy with stones and burned at least five cars as they broke through the main gate of the heavily fortified compound in eastern Sanaa, the witnesses said.
"We can see a fire inside the compound and security forces are firing in the air.
The demonstrators are fleeing and then charging back," one witness told Reuters. Witnesses said embassy guards fired in the air to keep the protesters at bay.
