[Iran Press TV Latest] Police disperses a crowd of nearly 200 people who stormed the Iranian Embassy in Stockholm on Friday, a report says. According to the AP report, a smaller group of the protestors, believed to have been Iranian expatriates, broke away from the crowd and forced their way into the Embassy. "A few managed to climb through broken windows into the building," police spokesman Ulf Hoglund said, adding that one of the Embassy staff was injured inside the building. Fifty police officers and an ambulance were dispatched to the Embassy building in the Lidinge archipelago island outside the city. Hoglund said police had evicted the demonstrators from the building and arrested one person. Organizers of the demonstration said a few of the protesters were injured in clashes with the Embassy's security officers. Police said the situation was under control, however, demonstrators continued to block the entrance, preventing Embassy personnel from leaving. Posted by: Fred 2009-06-27 |
