According to German media reports on Thursday, a group of Russian soccer hooligans making their way home from the Euro 2016 tournament attacked and injured several tourists in front of the Cologne Cathedral in western Germany.
Six Russian nationals were arrested, authorities said, "on their way to the airport to fly back to Moscow this evening." [...]
The incident follows days of brawls between Russian and English fans in the southern French city of Marseille, which hosted the match between the two countries. Russia has been slapped with a fine and a final warning from UEFA, and French authorities arrested three Russian hooligans before deporting twenty others. Even after the Russia-England game had come and gone, some English fans continued the violence, clashing with police in the city of Lille.
