Riots broke out in downtown Rotterdam during a demonstration against partial lockdowns Friday. Mayor Ahmed Aboutaleb told reporters it was “an orgy of violence.” He said, “on several occasions, the police felt it necessary to draw their weapons to defend themselves” as rioters set fires, torched cars, threw rocks and other blunt objects at police. 

“They shot at protesters, and people were injured,” Aboutaleb said. He couldn’t provide an injury report but said police fired warning shots.
