They reacted by bombarding the police with street cobblestones and beer bottles. The police charged with truncheons and hauled many of the students into the store's cellars, where they were severely beaten. Fighting spread all over the main streets of Zurich and dragged on until dawn. Next evening, there were more clashes when students stoned a police station where 20 youths were being held.

...fanged tongue, he spews out tirades of paranoia. A self-pitying child of rage and fear, he drowns his panic in alcohol. He courts oblivion in lust-the bed is his womb and his coffin.
