Philippines - police break up jail riot

Philippine police, firing warning shots in the air, broke up a fight between Muslim and Christian prisoners at a detention centre in Manila that injured 11 inmates, officials said on Monday.
Agrimero Cruz, a national police spokesman, said dozens of knives and improvised weapons were confiscated from hundreds of prisoners at a four-storey detention centre in Camp Bagong Diwa, site of a 24-hour bloody stand-off in March 2005.
"The riot started from a very minor misunderstanding over some petty things between a Muslim and a Christian inmate," Cruz said, denying the violence could be another attempt by prisoners to bolt out of the maximum security facility.
