Furious football fans attacked a police barracks in Italy last
night after an officer shot dead a supporter.
Lazio fan Gabriele Sandri, 26, was hit in the neck as police
tried to break up a clash between rival fans at motorway services
in Arezzo, Tuscany.
The incident triggered angry protests across the country and
a masked mob flooded into the barracks near Lazio's Stadio Olimpico
in Rome.

Windows were smashed and cars parked outside torched. Passengers
were forced off a bus, which was set alight. A number of officers
were injuries and arrests were made.
Police chief Vincenzo Giacobbe said Gabriele's death was "a
tragic error" but the victim's brother, Cristino, was seen
on TV screaming: "They killed my brother" as the family's
lawyer branded it "first degree murder".
Sports Minister Giovanna Melandri said: "The death is an
immense tragedy."
