LISBON (Reuters) - Lisbon's outer suburbs were calmer overnight amid a heavy police presence, but planned protests on Saturday could bring more clashes after three nights of car and bus torchings over the police shooting of a Cape Verde-born Portuguese resident.
Small groups of hooded assailants hurled stones at a bus and set ablaze trash bins in several multicultural neighbourhoods on the outskirts, police said on Friday, adding that overall the violence was much reduced.
