Serbian state TV showed people running from tear gas and one vehicle set on fire. It said several people were injured.The European Union's foreign policy chief Josep Borrell called for an immediate end to violence in Kosovo's north, adding that all "open issues must be addressed through the EU-facilitated dialogue" between Belgrade and Pristina.
"The injury to the shoulder blade and ribs has been caused by a firearm ... He is in intensive care and is in serious condition," Elek was quoted as saying. Serbian Prime Minister Ana Brnabic urged NATO, which has 3,000 peacekeepers in Kosovo, to step in and stop the violence.
