   Dozens of people got caught-up in a brawl between far-right vigilantes and Roma in the village of Gyongyospata.
   Seven have been arrested.
   At least four were injured in the clash, one seriously.
   Tensions have grown since last week when almost 300 Roma women and children were removed from the village because vigilantes were training nearby.
    The melee started after CCTV footage showed a drunken man urinating near a street inhabited by Roma. Then a group of about 50 equipped with hand tools got into a fight with four men,  vigilantes called Vedero/"Defensive Strength".
