Mexican president Vicente Fox has ordered federal security forces into the southern city of Oaxaca to quell violent protests that left a U.S. journalist and two Mexican nationals dead in shooting incidents Friday.
Mr. Fox said in a statement that the forces will arrive in the city Saturday.  He had previously resisted sending troops or federal police to the troubled city, where protesters have gathered for months to call for pay raises for teachers and the resignation of Oaxaca state governor Ulises Ruiz.
Oaxaca state has been in turmoil since teachers walked off the job in May demanding better pay and school funding.  The demonstrations turned violent when other activists critical of Ruiz joined the cause.  
A U.S. photographer and two Mexican men, one of them a teacher, were shot to death Friday near the site of the protests.
The striking teachers announced earlier in the week that they would end their strike.
The Mexican Senate voted Thursday to allow Ruiz to remain in office despite the unrest.
President Fox has vowed to resolve the crisis through negotiations before he leaves office December 1.
