That was a huge protest! The article says the numbers were in the hundreds of thousands and the crowd stretched for FIVE MILES. Possible shootings in other areas of northern Tehran:

The shooting was followed by reports from residents of three neighborhoods in northern Tehran who said shooting was heard there as well.

Seems the Iranian police/militia also stormed Tehran University last night, arresting protesting students.

Hard-line militia volunteers loyal to the Revolutionary Guard stormed the dormitories, ransacking student rooms and smashing computers and furniture with axes and wooden sticks, Akbar said.

Before leaving around 4 a.m., the police took away memory cards and computer software material, Akbar said, adding that dozens of students were arrested.
