Lisbon: March for Life Attacked with Molotov Cocktail

A Molotov cocktail was thrown at participants during a March for Life in Lisbon on Saturday. Fortunately, the device failed to ignite and no one was injured.

The suspect was quickly detained at the scene. According to police, the 39-year-old man has caused similar disturbances in the past.

Patriarch Rui Valério of Lisbon released a statement afterwards that violence is never the way:

"It does not build, it does not dignify, it does not serve the truth. And it becomes even more painful when it threatens the most vulnerable, especially children, who should always be a sign of hope and never exposed to fear."
