Nigeria riot toll at 215...
The death toll from sectarian violence over the Miss World pageant in Nigeria rose to at least 215 — more than double previous estimates — a Red Cross official said Sunday. Emmanuel Ijewere, president of the Nigerian Red Cross, told The Associated Press the relief organization had counted 215 bodies on the streets and in mortuaries in Kaduna by late Saturday night. Previous estimates had put the death toll at about 100. About 500 people were injured and 4,500 lost their homes in Kaduna. At least 22 churches and eight mosques were destroyed in the rampage.
