A protester with a bandana over her face confronts a riot police line-up on Bay Street during demonstrations 1 at the G8 and G20 Summits, Saturday, June 26, 2010 in Toronto.
Hundreds of demonstrators protesting the G-20 global economic summit in Toronto broke windows and set fire to some police cars during a noisy march near the site of the summit Saturday. At least 75 people are in custody 2 and police say there will be more arrests.
A column of thick black smoke rose from the burning police cars in a chaotic 3 scene that included throngs 4 of police in riot gear and many protesters. Police say some were anarchists 5, wearing black clothing, including masks.
Toronto Police Chief Bill Blair says his officers were pelted 6 with rocks and bottles, and used teargas to control one large crowd.
He says the violence may not be over.
"I do not believe the individuals bent 7 on vandalism and violence in our city are finished with their intent," Blair said. "And so we will remain vigilant 8, and we will be on the street all night and all tomorrow in sufficient numbers to deal with these individuals."
Toronto Mayor David Miller 9 says a few hundred people were responsible for the violence, out of thousands of marchers. He says people are welcome to express their views peacefully, but his city will not tolerate violence.
This is the most intense protest so far associated with the G-20 summit in Toronto, but there have been a series of sometimes colorful marches, over several days.
Marchers have been complaining about everything from pay for public employees to expensive housing to the excesses of capitalism 10.
Summit organizers have been so concerned about security that they have spent around $1 billion and brought in thousands of police from across Canada to strengthen the city and provincial 11 police forces here.
