Three Gypsies yesterday faced a Thessaloniki prosecutor for allegedly playing a key role in riots in the city’s Dendropotamos district on Monday evening. The three men were allegedly part of a group who threw sticks and stones at the homes of other Gypsies whom they accuse of selling drugs in the area. A few gunshots were fired during the riots but there were no injuries, police said.
