 3 Teenage Detainees Die In Violent Protest at Argentine Police Station
 Buenos Aires - Three minor detainees died and five others were injured when they tried to stage a violent protest at a police station in northern Argentina, authorities said Friday.

Ten of 12 minors detained in three cells joined the protest at the police station in the Oran locality in Salta province on Thursday, said the police. Two policemen were also injured in the violence.

The detainees attacked the policemen with cold steel and set many mattresses on fire in the protest that lasted for 45 minutes. Three of the injured died after they were sent to hospital.

Seven were killed in two riots at the same police station two years ago.
