Some killed at Afghan protest in Kabul
Shooting erupted in the Afghan capital Kabul on Monday and some people were killed and wounded, a security official said, during a protest by angry residents after a U.S. military convoy was involved in a traffic accident. It was not immediately clear who opened fire. A Reuters reporter near the scene saw wounded people being taken away.

Witnesses said some protesters had been killed after police intervened and forced protesters to scatter. "There are casualties, killed and wounded," said a security official who declined to be identified.

Authorities were not immediately available for comment.
They were busy ducking for cover.
Earlier, scores of people took to the streets after a vehicle in a U.S. military convoy was involved in an accident with a taxi and then tried to drive away, witnesses said. Protesters set two police vehicles on fire. "People are very angry," said resident Samad Shah.

U.S. military spokesmen were not immediately available for comment.
