Kosovo: Border Brutality - NATO tear-gasses Serbs in Kosovo

NATO troops in northern Kosovo have fired tear gas to disperse a crowd of local Serbs resisting the dismantling of a barricade near Mitrovitsa. Late on Wednesday, the Kosovo Force moved to dismantle a concrete barricade and stretched barbed wire across the road. Tear gas was fired shortly after hundreds of local Serbs gathered at the spot and tried to remove the barbed wire.
