The area was blocked off after a youth demonstration by the \"Gen Z regelt\" initiative, which drew over 100,000 participants nationwide, turned violent, with rioters smashing shop windows and looting stores. Several police officers were injured, and Molotov cocktails were thrown at officers. The initiative had called for protests in over 30 German cities, demanding more funding for schools, addiction help, and psychotherapy, as well as measures against rising living costs and climate protection.",
