Spanish police instigate bar fight in heart of Barcelona

Seven agents from the Spanish National Police, deployed in Barcelona, were protagonists of a bar fight in the heart of the Catalan capital on Monday night. 

According to eyewitnesses speaking to RAC1, the Spanish police agents, drunk and off-duty, started causing trouble from the moment they entered the bar. Two of them were very drunk, to the point that maybe they were on “something else” according to one source present at the bar in the Born district, one of the most touristic parts of the capital.

The agents were shouting, disturbing other clients, and abusing the Italian waiters, who spoke amongst themselves in their native tongue. The Spanish police confused Italian with Catalan, and obliged the waiters to speak in Spanish, saying “Barcelona is Spain.”
