Police teargas protesters

Greek police fired teargas at small groups of protesters who threw stones and firebombs in central Athens yesterday in a second-week of anti-government demonstrations since a policeman shot dead a teenager.

Youths outside Athens' main court and central police station clashed with riot police, while acts of vandalism against shops were reported in two northern cities in protests against the Dec 6 killing of 15-year-old Alexandros Grigoropoulos. His death has triggered Greece's worst riots in decades.
