Pro-Ouattara fighters attack Gbagbo's home

Fighters backing Cote D'Ivoire's elected president Alassane Ouattara, are attacking the residence of the incumbent, Laurent Gbagbo, in the city of Abidjan.

An Ouattara spokesman says they are meeting some resistance.

Ouattara's forces swept into the commercial capital on Thursday, and have also taken control of the state TV broadcaster.

Gbagbo has refused to give up power despite losing last November's election, according to results verified by local and international officials.
