More rioting by Spanish youths, who are protesting against Latin American immigrants, has erupted in a Madrid suburb. Around 300 riot police had imposed relative calm by Saturday night.

Rioters, including far-right extremist groups, threw stones and overturned bins in the Alkorkon district.Tensions have been high since last week, when around a thousand Spanish protestors rampaged through the district hunting for Latin American gangs, who they accused of an earlier stabbing.
