Hundreds of people opposed to Panama selling state-owned land in a duty-free zone on the Panama Canal have marched through the city of Colon a day after a violent protest resulted in a death and several injuries. No violence has been reported Saturday in the Caribbean port city. Heavily armed police are patrolling in response to a protest Friday that saw people burning tires,barricading streets and throwing things at police. Officers used tear gas and fired shots in the air to disperse the rioters. Authorities say a 10-year-old died from a gunshot but the source of the bullet is under investigation. People in the city object to legislation signed in to law Friday that will let export-import businesses buy land they are now leasing in the duty-free zone.
