Brussels: Riots after fatal police chase

Police chase

Early Sunday morning a special unit chased an Audi, ending up on the viaduct in Woutersbrakel, where the E19 crosses the Brussels ring road.

At about 4AM, an agent fired at the Audi driver because ‘he felt threatened’ [ed. according to another report, because his colleague was threatened]. The driver (29) died of his injuries on site. His passenger (21) tried to escape from the police by jumping from the viaduct. He was seriously injured and brought to hospital. His chances of surviving the fall are slim.

Riots Sunday

Riots started off in the Brussels suburb of Sint-Gillis Sunday night. The incident began at about at around 8pm next to the Bethlehem Square. Several youth set off small fires and threw oil on the square. Calm was restored when the police showed up and occupied the square, but then the incidents began in earnest.

Youth threw stones at the police, turned over cars and set them alight. They also threw Molotov cocktails.

Incidents on Tuesday

Three fires were set on Tuesday night in the Brussels suburbs of Sint-Gillis, Anderlecht and Sint-Jans-Molenbeek: Two cars and the entrance of a synagogue were set aflame. The synagogue fire was extinguished by neighbors, but the two cars burned down.

The group of youth stand as one behind the killed gang-member. They they don’t shun harsh language and exaggerations. In order to make their point clear, they give their fantasy free reign. “You know how old the boy that they murdered was? 17 years old. His brother sat next to him, he was 29. They didn’t have any weapon with them. They were normal boys from the neighborhood here. And you tell us, how can you be a serious bandit if you’re 17 years old?”

The Nijvel court definitely contradicts this story. The man on whom the agent opened fire was born in 1981, his friend in 1989. The gang members, who were wanted for violent raids on casinos in Brussels, were not family members.

The youth in the Bethlehem square identity without difficulties with their martyrs. The most talkative of the group, a boy of about 20, with a beard, cap and sports=shoes, has had enough of ‘everybody seeing us as bad guys’.

“We are not the problem. We’ve had enough of the police, which provokes us by killing innocents. These were people with brothers, sisters and parents. They’ve raised their sons well for years, and now they’ve been murdered by the cops. I’ll walk with you through the whole neighborhood to look for somebody who’s had a problem with them, you won’t find anybody.”

Just like with the riots in Kuregem, the security bodies are the targets. The riots in Sint-Gillis began with an attack on the local police commissioner’s office and on a police patrol car.

“And than we’ll turn this into Chicago,” another adds. “And it will be the police’s turn.” [ie, we’ll take care of them]
