Shortages bite in Spanish strike

A growing number of petrol stations in Spain are running out of fuel, as lorry drivers continue to blockade major cities in a protest over diesel prices.

With the strike in its second day, worried motorists cleaned garages out of fuel, and some food markets have also started running out of produce.

Catalan authorities are using their own tankers to re-supply garages.

Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero has cancelled engagements to deal with the strike.
