“Breaking News Alert: Tunisian prime minister announces resignation 
February 27, 2011 11:01:53 AM

Tunisian Prime Minister Mohamed Ghannouchi has announced his resignation after a renewed outbreak of street violence in the North African country in the past few days.

"I am not ready to be the person who takes decisions that would end up causing casualties," Ghannouchi said at a news conference broadcast on state radio and television. The prime minister was an ally of President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali, who was driven from power on January 18.

Clashes between stone-throwing protesters and police killed four people Saturday, officials said.
