An estimated 1,000 protesters returned to the street in Rio de Janeiro Monday (February 10) night to make a stand against transport fare hikes.

Protesters have been hitting the streets since last week's announcement that the price to ride the city bus was going up from 2.75 reais ($1.14) to 3.00 reais ($1.25).

TV cameraman Santiago Andrade was declared brain dead on Monday after a head injury suffered last week during a similar fare-hike protest. A protester's home-made explosive detonated near Andrade's head, said media reports.

Early on Monday night close to 50 journalists and photographers gathered for a moment of silence Andrade's honour.
