May Day Clashes with Police in Hamburg



Police cleared a protest in Hamburg using water cannon in the early hours of Sunday morning. The anti-capitalist protesters, who had gathered for a rally ahead of Labour Day, were soaked by high powered jets of the water from the cannon in the district of Schanzenviertel. The protesters then moved on to the Osterstrasse district of the city, where shops and bank windows were smashed. Cars were set on fire across the city.
