Audio: Christianians vs. Rioters

Here goes an uncut 10 minute audio taken yesterday at the burning barricade inside of Christiania, between roughly 23:10 and 23:20, which means about a quarter of an hour before the police went in.

Background sounds include the breaking of stones for throwing them, smashing bottles, rocket fireworks, the helicopter, the fire, chanting rioters, water coming out of a hose to extinguish the fire, etc. Periods of silence are due to everybody running away for a while because of the moving police.

Most interesting are the reactions of the people coming out of the homes next to the fire, critizising the rioters.

At about 6:40 of the audio a smashed bottle can be heard, followed by some more shouting. That was when a bottle landed about half a metre next to the person extinguishing the fire with the hose. Many people in the crowd got angry about that bottle being thrown. It also can be stated that the neighbourhood's intervention itself had already kept many rioters from continuing.
