Students for and against the government hurled rocks and furniture at each other Thursday as Lebanon’s power struggle turned violent on a university campus and spilled onto nearby streets. Hezbollah’s Al-Manar television said one of the militant group’s supporters was killed, but security officials could not immediately confirm the death. Security officials said at least 17 people were injured. Other TV stations reported that about 25 people were hurt.
