TRIPOLI, March 4 (Reuters) - Gunshots rang out in a district of Tripoli on Friday where several hundred opponents of Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi had been demanding an end to his rule, a Reuters reporter at the scene said.
'They fired teargas. I heard shooting. People are scattering,' the reporter said from the Tajoura district in the east of the Libyan capital.
