Police custody death sparks ri

HUNDREDS of Algerians went on a rampage today, looting and burning a state bank outside the capital Algiers and clashing with security forces after a youth died in police custody, residents said.

Several protesters and riot police were injured in the clashes which followed the death of the young man at a police station in the coastal town of Zeralda, about 35km west of Algiers, they said.

No details were available about the circumstances of the death of the young man and government officials were not immediately available for comment.

Police used tear gas to disperse the angry rioters who set fire to a bank after looting it. The rioters threw stones at police and attempted to attack more public buildings, the residents said.

Sporadic riots erupt across the North African country in protest against social problems, including acute housing shortages and unemployment.

The government said it is investing $US80 billion ($107.06 billion) over the next five years to improve standards of living, boost growth and modernise infrastructure.
