Sixty people have been hospitalized after Armenian police dispersed a demonstration near the police station seized by a group of armed radicals in Yerevan on Friday evening, Armenian Health Ministry spokesperson Anait Aitayan told Interfax.

"Forty-two patients have been brought to the Surb Grigor Lusavorich medical center, two of them in serious condition. One is having his eye being operated on, and the other suffered burns. His transportation to a specialized clinic is under consideration. Twelve injured people have been taken to the Erebuni medical center, one of them in serious condition," Aitayan said.

Five injured policemen have also been taken to the Erebuni medical center, one of them with a gunshot wound to his belly, who is being operated on, she said.

Aitayan denied reports alleging that a two-month-old child was also hospitalized following Friday's events.
