Further Update
According to this article, former President Zelaya got to the border with Nicaragua but no further.
Police in riot gear waited a short distance over the border and a helicopter flew overhead as Zelaya approached.
The ousted president, a logging magnate who draws support from unions and leftists, called his family from the border, saying, “I am on the Honduran side.” His wife traveled with supporters from the capital, Tegucigalpa, but did not get close.
Several hundred Hondurans trying to reach the border to greet him were kept several miles (km) back near the coffee town of El Paraiso. Some threw rocks, and troops tried to disperse them with teargas and sporadic shots in the air.
A Reuters photographer saw one police officer wounded in the head by a rock.
Triumphantly carrying a Honduran flag to the cheers of supporters below, about 150 people from Zelaya’s home department of Olancho arrived on the Nicaraguan side of the border some hours after Zelaya, having flaunted checkpoints and curfews by driving over mountains and hiking the last 8 miles though dirt roads, farms and trails.
Discussions in Costa Rica are apparently continuing to some extent, and Honduran officials are apparently considering various proposals advanced by Costa Rican President/Mediator Arias.
