Thousands march as strike shuts down Greece
Riot police clashed with demonstrators outside parliament today as a general strike paralysed Greece, shutting down schools, hospitals and international flights and raising pressure on a fragile government reeling from four days of riots.
The lawyer for the two officers charged after the fatal shooting of a teenager which set off the unrest said ballistics show 15-year-old Alexandros Grigoropoulos was killed by a ricochet and not a direct shot.
