Brazilian Police Clash With Protesters Rejecting New Leader


Police in Brazil's biggest city clashed with protesters who marched to reject the new president Sunday, five days after Dilma Rousseff was ousted as leader of South America's biggest nation. Sao Paulo authorities said they were forced to use tear gas, stun grenades and water cannons to stop vandalism after an "initially peaceful" demonstration against President Michel Temer. Rousseff has vowed to form a strong opposition against Temer, who was her vice president. In comments with foreign media Friday, Rousseff said she would raise her voice if Temer's administration tried to suppress protests. In the days leading up to her ouster and afterward, a handful of small anti-Temer demonstrations were broken up by police.
