The rally turned violent after some protesters used ropes to try to drag away police buses used as barricades to prevent them from marching into the presidential Blue House. Riot police immediately fired water cannons and sprayed fire extinguishers to repel them.
Angry protesters attacked police with steel pipes and stones, while police used clubs and shields against the crowd. Several hundred protesters were hurt during the rally that continued until Sunday morning, according to a coalition of civic groups that has organized weeks of demonstrations.
Police said the clash left more than 100 riot police injured and about 50 protesters were arrested on charges of assaulting police and illegally occupying streets.
how are we gonna fix this problem???
