Leipzig erupts in violence over far-left activist's jail term.

Far-left protesters clashed with police in Leipzig, Germany, leaving 50 officers and an unknown number of protesters injured. The protests were in response to the sentencing of Lina E. to five years and three months in prison for participating in attacks on neo-Nazis and other extremists. The planned demonstration was banned by the city of Leipzig, but around 1,500 protesters showed up despite the ban. Some politicians criticized the police's approach to the protesters, while others denounced the violent actions of some protesters.
