Police use tear gas to disperse England football fans in Lille, France
Tensions on the streets of Lille are heating up with English fans clashing with local police, who responded with tear gas in an attempt to disperse the crowd.
Some English fans accused Russian supporters of starting the clashes by setting off a flare or sound bomb in central Lille, RT’s Harry Fear reports from the scene.
Police officers are trying to break up a crowd of English football fans, although it is not clear what triggered the clashes that started at the end of the Russia-Slovakia match in the city.
The scuffles come a day before the match between England and Wales, which will take place in the nearby city of Lens.
