Riots On The Streets Of Athens

Several thousand protesters gathered on the streets of Athens, Greece, to mark the death of 15-year-old Alexandros Grigoropoulos.

The teenager’s death sent youths rampaging through cities for two weeks last December.

On Sunday and Monday the rioters marked the first anniversary of the fatal police shooting of the teenager by smashing shop windows, overturning rubbish bins and setting them alight as they hurled firebombs, rocks and firecrackers at police who responded with tear gas.
