Police battle Sorbonne protesters
3/12/2006
 

          French riot police have grappled with protesters at the Sorbonne in Paris in unrest over a new labour law, making it easier to sack young employees, reports BBC.
Police stormed the university early on Saturday to drive out at least 150 people, mainly students, some of whom had been inside for three days.
They used tear gas and batons to clear the main building in under 10 minutes, correspondents report.
At least two people were injured and some arrests were made.
About 40 of France's 84 universities saw student occupations to varying degrees on Friday in protest at the new law, according to French news agency AFP.
