The scan is the headline only; there is no body text on it to transcribe.

Context added by this archive

Five words in a Maryland county paper. Somebody fires, the people fired on are protesters, and nothing softens either half. Compare the Star-Ledger in 1982, which put the same act in Arab unrest (CP-1982-002).

This record is part of Covering Palestine, an archive of American newspaper clippings about Palestinians, 1724 to 2023. Researched and assembled by Maria Robles.

The clipping belongs to the newspaper that printed it, or to the news agency that supplied the copy. It is reproduced here for research, criticism and commentary. A city here is where the newspaper was published, not where the story came from, and on most records it was taken from the masthead.

Something wrong here, or something you know about this clipping? The archive is still being built and corrections are wanted: maria@rozumstudio.com, quoting CP-1988-003.
