Monday 17 November saw one of the biggest street violence in recent memory when hundreds of neo-Nazis clashed with police in Litvínov in northern Bohemia. Extremists from across the country, many of them fans of the Workers' Party planned to storm a Roma suburb but were in the end subdued by police. The violent and often bloody battle lasted over three hours and produced dozens of injuries on both sides and a number of arrests of far-right extremists.
