Libya: At least 14 dead in "day of rage"

Libyan protesters seeking to oust leader Moammar Gadhafi defied a crackdown and took to the streets in four cities Thursday on what was dubbed a "day of rage." There are unconfirmed reports that at least 14 demonstrators have been killed in clashes with pro-government forces.

New York-based Human Rights Watch said Libyan internal security forces have detained at least 14 people. Hundreds of pro-government demonstrators also rallied in the capital, Tripoli, blocking traffic in some areas, witnesses said, according to the AP.
