Athens residents have been calling on authorities to rein in the homegrown anarchist movement for days. A thousand of football fans have reportedly contributed to the violence.
Earlier on Friday, rowdy fans smashed the Athens office of the Thessaloniki-based football club PAOK ahead of a game with the local AEK. A day before that, members of the Rubicon anarchist group broke into the Oxfam office after accusing the nonprofit of ties to pedophiles.
