Two people were shot along Nairobi's Globe Cinema roundabout as waste recyclers engaged police in running battles. Another man is said to have drowned in the Nairobi River while fleeing from the police. A brawl ensued when the police, who were ordered to evict the collectors, threw tear-gas canisters at them. The collectors responded with stones and the police shot at them. The victims were taken to hospital. They claim they were not given any notice to vacate the area in an operation to clean the Nairobi River. The confrontation got out of control bringing traffic to a standstill. “Where do we go if our garbage is hauled away?” one of them asked. The collectors sell the used papers to industries to recycle them. Industries buy the garbage at Sh5 a kilo providing a living for the people.
