We will go to the « red zone » by Aris 4:24pm Fri Jul 20 '01

On Piazza Tomaseo, where the march of Tute Bianche was block by police, and in streets nearby, the confrontation goes on. Police keeps shooting tear gas and tries to push back demonstrators heading with light armoured vehicles. The march gathers again after first schock wiht police forces who were forced to go backwards on several points. In a small street a group of Tute Bianche succeeded a few minutes ago into breaking a police line. Gas used by cops are peculiarly violent and many demonstrators were intoxicated. Some were injured. Somewhere else, a witness saw in sidestreets civilians, obviously not demonstators, breaking systematicly parked vehicles. add your own comments
