In what has become an annual tradition, several neo- Nazi groups in Germany clashed with police this week as they celebrated Adolf Hitler’s birthday.

Neo-Nazis marched Sunday in two small towns in the central German state of Thuringia, where they shouted “Heil Hitler” and “Sieg heil.”

Some 15 demonstrators, many of them drunk, were placed under arrest.

Similar demonstrations took place Sunday in the northeastern state of Brandenburg.
