Several Killed in Pakistani Violence

A street fight between political rivals spiraled into rioting in Pakistan's biggest city on Wednesday. There were armed men smashing cars and setting fires. Five people burned to death in one building and two were shot and killed. It was the worst political violence Pakistan's new government has faced since taking office last month. They had vowed to curtail the powers of U.S. allied President Pervez Mushaffaf and cement democracy after eight years of military rule. But it doesn't seem to be working now.
