Five people were killed and 141 injured during clashes between different ethnic groups in western Ivory Coast, the government said Wednesday.
Fighting broke out between the Yacouba and Malinke communities in the town of Zouan-Hounien on November 21, said government spokesman Sidi Toure.
The clashes came after the death of a student in circumstances that were still not clear, a police source said.
Four people have been detained and an investigation launched, said the spokesman.
Two people were killed and many more injured in October last year after a property dispute degenerated into violence, in clashes that led 1,500 people to flee the region.
