Five Turkoman injured as Kurdish gunmen fire

After a short time, an exchange of fire broke out between some of armed marchers and Kurdish gunmen. A police station came under a haul of stone and a police vehicle was burned. A big explosion was heard later. US forces rushed to the spot to decrease tension. They stopped demonstrators who blocked the road leading to the Kirkuk’s governership amid slogans of "Kirkuk is Torkamens". Coalition helicopters hovered over the area to determine positions of protestors in the back streets of the city. Sound of fire have been still heard throughout the city.
