Venezuelan security forces fired scores of tear gas volleys and turned water cannons on rock-throwing protesters on a bridge in Caracas on Wednesday as the death toll from this month's anti-government unrest hit at least 29, APA reports quoting reuters.
A 20-year-old male demonstrator died in those latest clashes in the capital after being hit by a gas canister, said officials of the city's eastern Chacao district.
Authorities also announced two new fatalities from clashes earlier this week: a 22-year-old who received various gunshot wounds at a protest in the city of Valencia, and a 28-year-old government supporter shot in the stomach in Tachira state.
