St. Gallen, Switzerland: Groups of young people attacked police in the eastern Swiss city of St Gallen. A petrol bomb, rubber bullets, and tear gas were used, and 21 people were questioned. The unrest came a week after similar violence when police broke up an illegal party in the city. This week the exchanges were more heated, with police at one point being attacked by a Molotov cocktail. They responded with rubber bullets and tear gas. Two young people were injured. Some 21 were arrested by police for questioning, but all have since been released, according to Swiss public broadcaster, SRF. On Saturday, mayor of St Gallen Maria Pappa told reporters that the city would have "zero tolerance" for such violence, but that the events the previous night were also largely the result of "just a few troublemakers".
