DETROIT (Reuters) - Democratic presidential front-runner Joe Biden and rival Kamala Harris battled over healthcare and came under attack from other candidates on their criminal justice records and other issues in a contentious and sometimes angry debate on Wednesday.

On the second of back-to-back nights of debates, Biden and Harris were at the centre of a growing fight over healthcare that has split the Democratic Party and dominated the first candidate encounter in Detroit on Tuesday.
