"LIMA (Reuters) - Thousands of protesters overwhelmed Peruvian riot police on Monday, forcing them to halt efforts to clear a week-long blockade in a mining region that has left cities short of food or fuel.
Residents of Moquegua have seized roads, including Peru's main highway to Chile, and cut off access to a mine and smelter belonging to Southern Copper, the country's largest copper producer, to demand their province receive a bigger share of taxes paid by the company.
Police fired tear gas to disperse the crowds, but were pushed back by protesters demanding a bigger share of an economic boom that has generated windfall profits for mining companies. The protests started with 5,000 people and have grown to 20,000, police said.
"The situation here in Moquegua is out of control and the police must retreat. I have seven injured and am in trouble," Alberto Jordan, a regional police chief, told RPP radio.
