MADRID (Reuters) - Spanish police will launch an investigation into "serious incidents" at third-tier Racing Santander's King's Cup game at home to Almeria on Wednesday, when a group of disgruntled fans tried to storm the VIP tribune.
Around 50 Santander fans hurled objects including ash trays and lighters and spat at officials from both clubs gathered in the tribune at the Sardinero stadium and a security guard attempting to repel them required stitches to a head wound caused by a metal chair, police said in a statement.
