At least one person after clashes broke out between pro-refugee activists and police at Brenner Pass, Sunday, during a protest over Austria's construction of a barrier to keep refugees from entering the country.
Minor clashes erupted after activists tried to tear down a makeshift barrier set up by the Austrian police. The officers responded with batons and pepper spray, forcing the protesters to shield themselves with umbrellas and inflatables.
The protest came as Austrian authorities began constructing a control area, including a 250-metre barrier, on its border with Italy to stem the flow of refugees entering the country.
