A crowd of angry survivors of Spain’s floods tossed mud and shouted insults at Spain’s King Felipe VI and government officials when they made their first visit to one of the hardest hit towns on Sunday.
Government officials accompanied the monarch who tried to talk to locals while others shouted at him in Paiporta, an outskirt of Valencia city that has been devastated.
Police had to step in with officers on horseback to keep back the crowd of several dozens.
“Get out! Get out!” and “Killers!” rang out among other insults. Bodyguards opened umbrellas to protect the royals and officials as protestors launched mud their way.
