How this transcription was made
The scan is the page line and the two-line headline; there is no body text on it to transcribe. The page was confirmed against the paper’s own page: p.24. The record previously carried page 1.
Context added by this archive
Page A24, Sunday 7 May 1989. Same day as the Hawaii Tribune Herald (CP-1989-004), and the two papers differ by one injured person: 138 here, 137 there. The subject of the first clause is violence, which peaks by itself; the subject of the second is the three dead. The army is in neither clause.
A correction
the line above the picture reads 'A24 The Sacramento Bee - Sunday, May 7, 1989'; caption pairing swapped

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-1989-006.
