Rossio. Man tries to remove posters left by protester
On Wednesday, a Colombian man was briefly involved in a scuffle at Rossio Square after attempting to remove protest posters advocating for housing rights. He was later detained by police, reportedly for suspected drug possession. Earlier, he had placed posters on the statue of D. Pedro IV and near a police car, expressing support for housing rights and criticizing police actions. The incident escalated when a Portuguese man confronted him, expressing discontent with the protest and removing the posters. The confrontation was shared on social media by a local politician, who praised the Portuguese man for his actions. The Colombian was calmly arrested later in the afternoon.
