A witness in the city of Qatif said bullets and stun grenades were fired at several hundred protesters marching in the city streets on Thursday, the Associated Press reported. The witness, speaking on condition of anonymity because he feared government reprisal, said police in the area opened fire and at least one protester was injured. The Reuters news agency reported one witness as saying police fired percussion bombs to disperse the crowd of around 200 people. ... http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/mar/10/saudi-arabi...
