Thousands of protesters have attacked banks and shops in Athens and Greece's northern city of Thessaloniki, angered by the police's killing of a teenager. Demonstrators threw petrol bombs, rocks and other objects at the buildings and at police, who responded with tear gas. Greek Interior Minister Prokopis Pavlopoulos has appealed for restraint. The streets of the capital were already strewn with glass and rubble after a night of rioting sparked by Saturday's shooting, in the Exarchia district. Police said Saturday's riots had left 24 police officers injured, one seriously, and 31 shops, nine banks and 25 cars damaged or burned.
