Mexico City police injured by explosion at protest

MEXICO CITY (AP) — An explosion has occurred outside Mexico’s Attorney General’s Office, injuring police as protesters demonstrating ahead of the anniversary of the 2014 disappearance of 43 students clashed with officers in riot gear. Multiple police were injured by the explosion and loaded onto ambulances. Broken glass and blood were visible. A bomb squad cordoned off the area. The protest was one of a host of activities planned in advance of Monday’s 8th anniversary of the students’ disappearances. On Sept. 26, 2014, local police in Iguala, Guerrero abducted 43 students from a radical teachers’ college. They were allegedly turned over to a drug gang and never seen again.
