Athens - Hundreds of black-hooded anarchists set fire to shops, banks and an apartment building in central Athens on Sunday.
It was not immediately known if any people were trapped inside the apartment building.
Riot police had earlier clashed with the anarchists as more than 55,000 demonstrators marched on parliament ahead of a key vote on a new round of austerity measures.
