About 1,000 anti-nuclear protesters fought with police in Hamburg, and fires believed set by arsonists linked to the weekend demonstrations in West Germany caused millions of dollars in damage. Three officers were injured in the Hamburg clashes, which a police spokesman said grew out of protests Saturday at a new nuclear reactor at Brokdorf, 40 miles from Hamburg. A fire caused damage estimated at more than $2 million at a research center of the AEG electronics firm in Frankfurt. Fires also caused damage at other sites associated with nuclear power.
