14 Killed in DRC Clashes

Authorities in Democratic Republic of Congo say at least 14 people are dead after clashes between police and suspected members of a religious sect that was behind a recent prison break.

The violence broke out early on Monday in the capital of Kinshasa, where gunfire could be heard in several neighborhoods.

Police blamed the fighting on the Bundu dia Mayala movement and police spokesperson Colonel Pierrot Mwanamputu said four of the sect members and eight others had been killed by stray bullets.

Two others were killed in related violence in southwestern DRC.
