Migrant hospitalized after revenge beating

A 50-year-old Albanian national was being treated on Tuesday for multiple injuries sustained after a group of half a dozen young men began assaulting migrants in Iraklio, Crete, following the murder on Monday of an 85-year-old local woman. Residents in the village of Episkopi Pediados took to the streets on Monday night after learning that the 85-year-old woman was killed by robbers in her home, blaming the incident on foreign nationals living in the area.
