More than 2,500 protesters marched today, Sunday December 6 2015 in the streets of Thessaloniki, keeping alive the memory of the student Alexandros Grigoropoulos who was murdered seven years ago in Exarchia, Athens from cop's (Epaminondas Korkoneas) bullets. In the junction of Tsimiski and Karolou Dil Streets, the march was met by riot cops with full gear and gas masks, at least 5 squads, in an obvious attempt to find an opportunity to attack the march. Strong guard, with first the block of Autonomous Formations of Students, prevented the risk of an unprovoked attack by the cops and after a short stop, the march continued with the stifling escorting of the riot squads up to the Egnatia Street. The march culminated in Kamara and at the Rotonda Square, temporary episodes erupted. Protesters clashed with riot cops with molotov cocktails and stones. Earlier, during the march, when demonstrators reached Egnatia Street through Venizelos Street, the block of the "leftist" organizations, who where always keeping distance, chose not to follow the massive Black Block and the students who were ahead and went to the, now empty, building of the Ex-Ministry of Macedonia & Thrace at Agiou Dimitriou Street.
The march had pulse and passion and slogans vibrated the city mainly from the side of the block of the Flower of Youth who gave promise of continuing the struggle.
