At least 170 people have been arrested overnight in Copenhagen after protests at Thursday's eviction of squatters from a downtown building.
The eviction drove the youths into blinding rage, as they had viewed the building as free public housing for years.
Police crashed the protests Saturday morning, leaving a few barricades erected and at least a dozen cars aflame.
