At least three people were killed and nearly two dozen others injured near the Bolivian capital of La Paz when security forces and protesters clashed at a major gas plant.

Several people have died this weekend in clashes with security forces in Bolivia, where an interim government is in control after the ouster of President Evo Morales.

Six priests became modern-day martyrs in one of the most high-profile religious crimes in recent Latin American history. A woman who witnessed the incident says the FBI pressured her to stay quiet.

On Nov. 16, 1989, six Jesuit priests, their housekeeper and her teenage daughter were killed by a group of U.S.-backed soldiers in El Salvador's capital.

In Bolivia, backers of the recently ousted president dismiss the new interim president as illegitimate, because she was not approved by congress. She, in turn, vows a return to democracy.

After weeks of its worst unrest in decades, Bolivia's embattled president fled the country for asylum in Mexico. All designated successors also quit and Congress now must decide on the next leader.
