Nato troops fire tear gas at Serb protesters

Nato troops in Kosovo fired tear gas to disperse a crowd of Serbs resisting the dismantling of a concrete barricade put up to block Kosovo authorities from controlling the Serb-dominated area.

An AP reporter witnessed Nato soldiers in riot gear attempting to remove a concrete barrier and stretching barbed wire on the road. Tear gas was fired after several hundred Serb protesters removed the barbed wire. Nato did not immediately comment.
