ANTANANARIVO, Madagascar — A group of dissident officers was reported ready to surrender Saturday after attempting to seize power earlier in the week, but junior officers resisted and gunfire rang out during negotiations aimed at defusing a volatile impasse.
The mutinous officers had declared Wednesday they were taking over from Andry Rajoelina, who toppled an elected president in 2009 after months of violent protest.
