A 15-year-old girl was killed and about 30 people were wounded during clashes between protesters and security forces in Senegal's capital Dakar on Tuesday night, a local official said on Wednesday. They came during a time of general unrest in Senegal, which is considered one of West Africa's most stable democracies but has been rocked by violent demonstrations linked to President Macky Sall's refusal to rule out running for a third term in office and court cases involving a popular political rival. Riot police have become a regular sight on Dakar streets and on Wednesday morning they manned gas stations and busy intersections in the north of the city.
