• KIEV, Ukraine (AP) -- Police in the Ukrainian capital broke up a large anti-government demonstration in the city center before dawn Saturday, swinging truncheons and injuring many.
• The riot police used tear gas when they dispersed the crowd of about 400 protesters who were demanding the resignation of President Viktor Yanukovych, demonstrators said. Some at Independence Square were seen bleeding from their heads and arms.
• The crowd was the remains of a Friday night rally that attracted some 10,000 people protesting Yanukovych's decision not to sign a long-anticipated association agreement with the European Union.
• It was not clear why police took action when they did. But speakers at the rally had called for another large gathering on Sunday, raising the prospect of a wave of protests extending into a second week.
• "It was horrible. We were holding a peaceful demonstration and they attacked us," said Lada Tromada. "They threw us away like garbage." Police moved in on the demonstration at about 4:30 a.m., said one of its organizers, Sergei Milnichenko.
