Hundreds of protesters gathered demonstrating against the billions of dollars being spent to host this year's World Cup while the nation's public services remain in a woeful state. The protest started peacefully, but adherents to the Black Block anarchist tactics vandalized banks and clashed with police, who used tear gas and stun grenades to disperse the violent demonstrators.
