Serres police arrested members of the independent farmers' group who crossed the riot police roadblock near the Petritsi intersection, near the Greek-Bulgarian borders.
The farmers arrested had succeeded, through detours, to cross the riot police "barricade" a short way from the Petritsi bridge and reach the Promahonas border station through Angistri.
The arrests of six farmers followed.
At the same time, tension was created between police, farmers and passing motorists, when riot police prevented the passing of all vehicles to and from the Promahonas border station, shortly before the Petritsi bridge.
