Spanish police evict hundreds of migrants from squat deemed a safety hazard

BARCELONA: Police in northeastern Spain began carrying out eviction orders Wednesday to clear an abandoned school building where hundreds of mostly undocumented migrants were living in a squat north of Barcelona. Knowing that the eviction was coming, most of the occupants had left before police in riot gear from Catalonia’s regional police entered the school’s premises early in the morning under court orders. The squat was located in Badalona, a working class city that borders Barcelona.
