There are recording of those "Black Bloc" setting up road blocks and the protesters tried to take them down. When we were there on Wednesday, a group of them (before we knew them as Black Bloc) was calling for people to occupy an empty building. My wife's first reaction was "Why?" and of course we did not participate and only a hundred or so of them, mostly of the Black Bloc, went there. Turns out that the police raid was to kick them out.
