A member of the Oaxacan People's Popular Assembly (APPO) throws stones at federal forces on the second day of a federal forces operation in Oaxaca City October 30, 2006. Leftist protesters clashed with riot police in the colonial city of Oaxaca on Monday after Mexico's federal government seized control of the popular tourist spot to try to end months of violence.
