Supporters of Dr Kizza Besigye on Tuesday fought with police in Mbarara over traffic of the FDC Presidential Candidate's convoy in the town, Chimp Corps report.

It all started with Mbarara District Police Commander Jaffar Magyezi leading cops in two patrol cars towards Besigye's convoy.

Magezi said he wanted to see orderliness in Besigye's convoy.

He said some of the excited fans were driving recklessly thus posing a danger to other road users.

Magezi further cautioned that over-speeding was equally dangerous for the drivers and Besigye's followers in the convoy.

At this juncture, Besigye's security said police should not disrupt the candidate's convoy.

As Besigye's convoy approached Mbarara-Ibanda road, several FDC supporters picked up sticks before confronting the cops.

This sparked off a fight that lasted a few minutes.

Besigye's convoy exploited the scuffle to drive off to Kabindi. It still remains unclear if suspects have been held in the fracas
