Violent Protests Erupt at Spanish Socialist Party's HQ Over Catalan Amnesty Law

TL;DR Summary
Dozens of people, including police officers, were injured in protests outside the Madrid headquarters of Spain's ruling socialist party. The demonstrations were against the party's plans to offer an agreement deal to Catalan separatists. The protests turned violent, with clashes between protesters and riot police. The issue of the agreement has emerged after the inconclusive general election, where the conservative People's party narrowly beat the socialist party. The socialist party can only form a government with the support of the two main Catalan pro-independence parties, who are demanding amnesty for those involved in the failed push for secession.
