Ortez: The Police Did Not Shoot
2

Honduran Chancellor, Enrique Ortez Colindres says the shot that killed Isis Obeth Murillo was fired from the crowd of protesters, not from the Honduran police, according to El Universal, Venezuela. If you look at the picture above (see larger version), taken yesterday at the scene, the police do not even have guns, only the military, who are a considerably longer distance away. To reach the wall where the young man was killed, they would have needed a sniper. I reserve judgement, but I think this explanation is plausible.

Interesting – La Prensa is reporting that the video shown on the BBC website shows that at least one pro-Zelaya supporter at Toncontin was carrying a revolver. You can see the video at:

Now that the BBC has its own reporter in Tegus, the BBC reporting has become less biased and more objective.
