Sensitivity training for police
After 34 hours of detention in the town jail of Alcozauca in the mountains of Guerrero state, 29 members of the town police were released.  A group of 200 or so locals, mostly indigenous Mixtecos, had jailed the police because of their alleged mistreatment of the local population.  A lengthy negotiation with higher authorities won their release.
