Violence at a youth-led protest in Peru's capital on Wednesday left one man dead and more than 100 people injured, authorities in the South American country said.

President Jose Jeri announced on X "the death of 32-year-old citizen Eduardo Ruiz Sanz," and the Ombudsman's Office said more than 100 people were injured, updating earlier tolls.
