Groups of people have smashed shop windows, looted, and attacked police vehicles in central Stuttgart during hours of night-time disturbances.
German police say more than a dozen police officers were hurt during the violence, in south-west Germany.
Video clips on Twitter show people vandalising shops in the city centre and hurling big stones and other objects at police vehicles.
Stuttgart police say the violence began after police checked a drugs incident.
The situation escalated after a 17-year-old was questioned for an alleged drug offence, the city's police vice-president Thomas Berger told reporters.
A group of between 100 and 200 people responded by throwing stones and bottles at the police on the central Schlossplatz, a large square.
This then grew, he said, to between 400 and 500 people attacking police. Many of the rioters were said to be hooded and masked.

Or Blackshirts, in the UK and Italy. Looks like they’re making a comeback in the UK, too.
Obama is making his move.
The people who have the biggest grievances against germany aren’t the ones rioting, destroying and assaulting. I wonder who it might be. Could it be the ones who merkel let in and who still hate her and germany?
Back when I lived in Germany (many decades ago) the police would have responded very harshly to such activity. Guessing it is much different now....
“Groups of people have smashed shop windows, looted, and attacked police vehicles in central Stuttgart during hours of night-time disturbances.”
I wonder if CNN and the rest of the Lame Street Media will call this “mostly peaceful protest”?
There are rumors that the Germans used to know how to fight fairly well.
“Brownshirts.”
Brownskins.
Germany and other European states will be regretting for centuries for welcoming invaders.
Once all the Germans were warlike and mean,
But that couldn’t happen again.
We taught them a lesson in 1918
And they’ve hardly bothered us since then.

Thank you Merkel.
Meh. What happens in Germany, stays in Germany.
“Peaceful and non-violent.”
They thought they were getting cheap labor, and possibly inviting a little "hybrid vigor." Instead they picked up a nasty, virulent parasite.
But only some of them have realized that. Merkel... not at all.
The German soldiers had good discipline. The some German generals were effective such as Erwin Rommel. Unfortunately for Germans their Fuehrer was stupid and did not comprehend the effectiveness of nuclear weapons. German scientists were ahead of others in development of nukes, but Hitler thought it was waste of money, and did not support development of nukes.
Humans originated in Olduvai gorge in East Africa and invaded every continent. Europe has been invaded for centuries by Africans and Arabs and Mongols. Nothing new.
This time is different. The invasion was by invitation.

George sure made an impression on people!!
