PERU: Copper Mine Protestors Try To Block Pan Am Highway, Set Fires Near Islay.

     Hundreds of protesters opposed to a Southern Copper mine near Islay smashed windows and set a bus on fire as at least a thousand police officers tried to stop a blockade of  the Pan-American highway.
    The Front for the Defense of the Tambo Valley says the mine would cause pollution and accused the government of President Alan Garcia of being on the side of big mining companies.
