# Hundreds of protesters clashed with Australian emergency services workers in a remote town following the alleged murder of a five-year-old Indigenous girl. The girl was reported missing from her home on the outskirts of Alice Springs late on Saturday. Her body was found on Thursday. The man who allegedly killed the girl, was taken into police custody after being found by locals and badly beaten. Australia has struggled for decades to reconcile with its Indigenous population, who have inhabited the land for some 50-thousand years but were marginalised by British colonial rulers.
