Police were braced for further protests in the eastern German city of Chemnitz on Monday, after far-Right rioters tore through the streets attacking people they believed to be migrants on Sunday afternoon.

A crowd of around 800 people gathered in the city Sunday afternoon to protest after a man was killed in a fight between “a number of people of different nationalities,” local police said.

Three men in their thirties were injured during the incident, which took place in the early hours of Sunday morning during a street festival, according to Chemnitz police.

Unconfirmed rumours being circulated online said the fight between around ten men may have kicked off after a woman was harassed in the street.

The spontaneous protest that erupted on Sunday afternoon following the incident quickly turned violent and witness reports and videos show people chasing and attacking foreign people.
