A rumble broke out at the traditional site of Jesus' burial on Sunday when Greek Orthodox and Armenian believers, who fiercely protect their hold over sections of the shrine, traded blows. Police said two clerics were arrested after a fist-fight erupted during a procession of worshipers in the church, the traditional site of Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection. [Agencies]
