TASHKENT, Uzbekistan ? Thousands of people, many of them armed, took to the streets of an eastern Uzbek city today, attacking a prison and freeing inmates to protest the detention of prominent businessmen on charges of Islamic extremism, witnesses said.

Nine people were killed and 34 wounded in the clashes, Russian news agency ITAR-Tass reported.

Uzbek President Islam Karimov and other leaders immediately rushed to the city of Andijan amid reports that police in two districts were surrounded by armed protesters. ITAR-Tass, citing Karimov's office, reported that talks were under way to free the police.
