Brussels mayor fumes at police for not stopping hooligans in advance
Brussels Mayor Yvan Mayeur says police had done “nothing” to stop the hooligans coming to Brussels despite having advance warning, adding that he was “appalled” that “such thugs have come to provoke residents at the site of their memorial.”
Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel says he “emphatically” condemned the demonstration.
The mourners gathered despite the fact that organizers had earlier called off a “March Against Fear” in Brussels on Sunday at the request of Belgian authorities, who said police needed the resources for their investigation.
