Authorities are investigating the cause of the incident.

The government has unveiled a new plan to install 1,388 traffic cameras across Athens over the next 18 months.

The cameras will monitor speed limits, red light violations, seat belt use, mobile phone use and other traffic infractions.

Police in Athens are investigating a fight that involved a firearm in the early hours of Thursday on central Syngrou Avenue.

The investigation comes after two men in their 20s turned up on a motorcycle at the Asklipeio Hospital in the southern Athens suburb of Voula seeking medical assistance.

Late last night, scenes resembling a Western movie unfolded on Syngrou Avenue, Athens, with a man opening fire and injuring a 35-year-old in the hand. A 22-year-old was also injured during the preceding brawl.

An accident occurred around 2:30 p.m. Monday on Syngrou Avenue, at the height of Kallithea.

Specifically, two vehicles collided in Piraeus’ direction, which only caused property damage.

The site remained closed for some time until the vehicles were removed and the roadway cleared. Approximately three hours later, the road was returned to normal traffic.

Two bombing incidents this year at a gas station in Piraeus on March 8 and a liquor store in Kallithea on March 11, as well as a shootout with Kalashnikovs on Syngrou Avenue on March 23, were just the latest incidents in the ongoing turf war between rival gangs despite the recent police crackdown on the so-called Greek mafia.

Flooding has been reported on a number of streets in Athens as Storm Daniel, which has caused havoc in many parts of the country for the past three days, reached the capital.

The rainfall began in the morning but by 4 p.m., the situation had deteriorated in many areas, with heavy downpours and intense lightening in the capital and Piraeus.

The incident occurred on Poseidonos avenue

Police briefly detained two people for putting up flyposters advertising a speech of main opposition leader Alexis Tsipras on a main avenue in Athens without a legal permit.

The two individuals, identified as foreign nationals, were placing the posters on street lamps near the Onassis Cardiac Surgery Center on Syngrou Avenue, police said.

A parade by school children to mark Greece's defiance of the Axis powers and its entry into World War II on October 28, 1941, will close down much of the city center on the anniversary of the event on Monday.
