Trouble in Longnan

A blogger has posted an article and photos related to the Longnan riots on Sina.com. The Washington Post reports it like this:

"On Monday, about 2,000 people rioted in Gansu's Wudu district over plans to move the Longnan city government offices, which had been damaged in the May 12 Sichuan earthquake, to a nearby county. Fearing the move would reduce property values and threaten their livelihoods, Wudu residents protested again Tuesday, clashing violently with police and looting government offices, the Gansu Daily reported."
