Violent anti-migrant protests hit Soweto and Durban

Anti-migrant protests turned violent Oct. 8 in Soweto, Johannesburg, and Durban. Acting police commissioner Puleng Dimpane said 10 vehicles were torched in Johannesburg and 14 in Durban. Foreign-run shops were looted and forced shut. In Durban, police fired rubber bullets, a less-lethal crowd-control round, arresting three. Protesters demanded refugee centres stop processing asylum applications.
