>Mobs in Venezuela have stolen flour, chicken and even underwear this week as looting increases across the crisis-hit OPEC nation where many basic products have run short.
>Many people now get up in the dead of night to spend hours in long lines in front of supermarkets. But as more end up empty-handed and black market prices soar, plundering is rising in Venezuela, already one of the world's most violent countries.
>In one of the latest incidents, several hundred people looted a truck carrying kitchen rolls, salt and shampoo after it crashed and some of its load tumbled out in volatile Tachira state on Thursday, according to a local official and witnesses.
>Fifteen people were injured, including six security officials trying to restrain the crowd, said local civil protection official Luis Castrillon.
>"There was a big scuffle ... There were shots in the air and they fired tear gas," said witness Manuel Cardenas, 40.
>President Nicolas Maduro blames the crisis on the fall in global oil prices, a drought that has hit hydroelectric power generation and an "economic war" by right-wing businessmen and politicians.
>But the opposition say he and his predecessor Hugo Chavez are to blame for disastrous statist economic policies.
>They are pushing for a recall referendum this year to remove Maduro, 53, and trigger a new election.
So watcha think traps?
