Ethiopia: 'Racist' assault alarms Germans

A German man of Ethiopian origin is fighting for his life after being badly beaten, in what police described as a racist attack. The 37-year-old engineer suffered extensive skull and rib injuries in the attack by two men in Potsdam, eastern Germany, early on Sunday (April 15). About 100 foreigners have been killed in attacks by neo-Nazis since German reunification in 1990.
