Argentine authorities have sent hundreds of troops to the southern city of Bariloche after a spate of looting.
At least three supermarkets in the popular ski resort were targeted, causing panic among local residents and tourists.
Dozens of people, many with their faces covered, broke into the supermarkets stealing electronics, toys and clothes.
The government blamed small criminal gangs but local authorities pinned the attacks on anarchist organisations. |

Now for the D.Goldsmith moment-
Have you been in Bariloche or have you ever experienced looting in a ski resort (other than by resort restaurants)?

No but I have seen many people in ski resorts with their faces covered! Perhaps they were on their way to loot the supermarkets

I have been to Bariloche, it's delightful. They make amazing chocolate there, and even have small supermarkets devoted to it, no wonder people went crazy. My favourite was Cherries dipped in chocolate.
