Bolivia: Student killed in clash

SUCRE — Soldiers clashed with students protesting Bolivia's constitutional assembly on Saturday, leaving one student dead in a second day of unrest against the pending legal overhaul.

University student Gonzalo Duran was shot dead during disturbances in the southern city of Sucre, said Marcelo Carvajal, head of emergency medicine at the city's Santa Barbara hospital. Thousands of students and residents took to the streets of Sucre Friday and Saturday, marching to a local military academy where government allies are meeting to draft revisions to the nation's constitution.

Bangladesh: Bridge collapses

KALAPARA — A section of a bridge collapsed Saturday as thousands of hungry cyclone victims stampeded toward aid workers delivering rice in southwestern Bangladesh, officials said. Dozens were injured and at least one person died.

Villagers have become desperate for food and other aid as relief workers struggle to bring in adequate supplies. Ashraful Zaman, an official at the local Disaster Management Control Room, said the stampede across the 500-foot bridge in the Patuakhali district, one of the areas hit hardest by Tropical Cyclone Sidr this month, was triggered by an offer of rice by a private group that had not alerted local officials of its plans.

Canada: Another Taser death?

VANCOUVER, British Columbia — A Canadian man died Saturday, four days after police used a Taser stun-gun on him because he reportedly was acting erratically in a store, police said. He was the third person to die in recent weeks in Canada after being shocked by the hand-held weapon.

Robert Knipstrom, 36, died in a hospital after two officers used pepper spray, a Taser and their batons to subdue the British Columbia resident.

Ecuador: Airport complaints

QUITO — President Rafael Correa complained on Saturday he did not receive special diplomatic treatment at a Miami airport security checkpoint earlier this month and will now avoid traveling through the U.S.

In his weekly radio address, Correa said he accepted an apology issued Tuesday by U.S. Ambassador to Ecuador Linda Jewell, who said U.S. officials learned of his travel plans only hours before and "didn't have time to make all the arrangements necessary to receive a head of state."
