Paraguayan lawmakers impeached President Fernando Lugo on Friday over his handling of a deadly land dispute, prompting an angry din across Latin America and refusals to recognize his successor.

In a 39-to-4 vote, senators found Lugo, a 61-year-old former Catholic priest with a string of outstanding paternity cases, guilty of performing his duties badly during a land dispute last week that left 17 people dead.

Aerosmith front man Steven Tyler wowed tens of thousands of fans in Paraguay with his vocal stylings and dance moves after a fall forced him to delay the US band's concert in Asuncion by a day.

Tyler's bruises -- one very visible on his right cheek and the other on his chin -- did not keep him from thrilling the fans late Wednesday with a vibrant set at the Jockey Club that included many of the band's greatest hits.
