        Young protesters broke down a metal fence guarding an air base in Caracas on Saturday before being repelled by security forces firing tear gas in another day of anti-government protests in Venezuela's capital.
        
        Demonstrators threw stones, and some protesters were injured.
        
        The clashes took place after a peaceful mass demonstration next to La Carlota base where a 22-year-old protester was killed this week when a national guardsman shot him in the chest at close range with rubber bullets.
        
        Protesters also fought with security forces outside the base Friday, and activists burned some vehicles during the confrontation.
