Louis Vuitton fashion show turns ugly: Protesters clash with police after Barcelona park was closed for catwalk event starring Sophie Turner, Jennifer Connelly and Ana de Armas

Dramatic clashes have broken out between police and protestors near a Barcelona park after it was closed for a private fashion event today.

Chaotic scenes showed friction between baton-wielding officers and residents rallying against the use of public property for a Louis Vuitton runway.

Protestors were beaten back by masked police in riot gear as they shared their discontent over the use of the famous green space to show off next year's Cruise collection.
