Not too major of a story, since he apparently wasn't targeted personally. But Vitali, and scores of other individuals protesting a controversial language law in Kiev, were tear gassed by Ukrainian police attempting to control the situation. It looks like no serious injuries were incurred by Vitali, but still--shit pretty much jumped off over there. Linguistic issues in countries that were part of the Soviet bloc are pretty serious, it seems. Glad he wasn't hurt.
