Bringing tribal culture to the western world

The North Carolina unrest happened the same day rioting broke out between two rival groups of Eritreans in the Netherlands on Saturday night. 

Police said officers there used tear gas in an attempt to quell the unrest in The Hague as rioters torched police cars and a bus. 

Images from the scene showed vehicles in flames and dozens of men in the street, some throwing rocks.

The fighting is the latest outbreak of violence at Eritrean events in Europe.

Dozens of people, including at least 26 police officers, were injured during unrest surrounding an Eritrean cultural festival in the southwestern German city of Stuttgart in September 2023.

Months earlier, a clash at an Eritrean festival in the western German city of Giessen left 22 police officers injured.
