Athens: Immigrants attacked in revenge for stabbing death



Via B92:
Several hundred people, including neo-Nazis, assaulted immigrants in the Athens neighborhood of Patission, after a murder blamed on foreigners.

Shouting "foreigners get out," the mob earlier attacked immigrants in the street and vandalized at least one foreign-owned shop, police said.

Police used tear gas to keep protesters away from a squatter home in Patission.

The violence broke out after a 44-year-old man was stabbed to death early Tuesday as he prepared to take his pregnant wife to hospital.
