ATHENS (Reuters)
Angry farmers in Trikala in central Greece burst through police lines with their pigs to occupy a bank.

Police failed to prevent the farmers from invading the local branch office of the Agricultural Bank. Greek television footage showed weary pigs resting beneath desks.

The farmers were demanding rescheduling of their debts.
