Clashes with police began when protesters arrived at the headquarters of state-run television station MTVA and tried to storm the building, CNN affiliate ATV Hungary reports. Video and images show officers in riot gear firing tear gas into the crowd during the confrontation. Demonstrators stand outside Hungary's Parliament on Sunday in Budapest.
