Thessaloniki, Greece on April 10, 2013. Riot police officers block the entrance of Police Headquarters Department in Thessaloniki. Protesters from Thessaloniki and the village of Ierissos gathered in front of the police headquarters in Thessaloniki, where two local residents of Ierissos are held after being arrested over their alleged involvement in a February arson attack at the gold mine installations near Ierissos village. Protesters in northern Greece attacked a police station Wednesday, throwing office files and furniture out the building and setting it alight, in a village where frequent protests have been staged against plans to develop a gold mine by a Canadian mining company, authorities said.
