Several sources report that there are clashes in Aryashahr, near Second Sadeghiyeh Square. Tear gas is being employed.
ePersian radio’s reporter: Karroubi arrived at Second Sadeghiyeh Square. He was attacked physically. He got back in his Peugeot 405 and drove away. The car’s windows were smashed.

Female caller to ePersian radio: I’m in Aryashahr and from the subway station all the way to Aryashahr is full of people. The people are running in the direction of Azadi Square. I can see some religious people clashing with the people. Can you hear the people? (sounds of Allah Akbar in the background) It hasn’t gotten to the point of lobbing tear gas yet. There are helicopters flying overhead. They’ve been flying over the city since midnight. If I die today, it won’t be a problem.

I must get to sleep .. prayers continuing.
thank you! Nite.
I can’t imagine that is going to go over very well with the people. Not only did they beat him, but when the car fled, they chased it and smashed all the windows.
Word of this will spread quickly.

Helicopters flying very low just north of Azadi Square.
Very large crowd, mix of Basijis and protesters, near University Street, close to Tehran University.
Despite massive security presence, pockets of protesters holding green ribbons and other distinctive signs have amassed on the north and west sides of Azadi Square and their number is growing.
