“Spanish riot police fired rubber bullets at baton-charged protesters Tuesday as thousands rallied near parliament in Madrid in anger at the economic crisis, in clashes that left 14 people wounded. Riot police in helmets charged to clear thousands of protestors who swamped the Plaza de Neptuno square yelling ‘Shame!’ and ‘Resign!’, addressing the government. An emergency services official said at least 14 people had been hurt during the protests, including one with a serious back injury. Police said 14 people were arrested.”
