My Way News - Riot police end Istanbul park protest:
My Way News reports: "Turkish riot police firing tear gas and water cannon took less than
half an hour on Saturday to bring to an end an 18-day occupation of an
Istanbul park at the center of the strongest challenge to Prime Minister
Recep Tayyip Erdogan's 10-year tenure. [...] Thousands of peaceful protesters, choking on the fumes and stumbling among the tents, put up little physical resistance, even as plain-clothes police manhandled many to drive them from the park. Just moments before, the park had been full of protesters young and old, as well as families with children."
