THESSALONIKI, Greece (AP) – A protest march by 1,500 far-left activists in the northern Greek city of Thessaloniki turned violent on Saturday towards its end, when some protesters threw firebombs and rocks at riot police, who responded with stun grenades and tear gas.

Police prevented the marchers from reaching their intended destination, the campus of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. Thirty people were detained, of whom 27 will face charges, police said.
