Protesters Clash With Police during the G20 Summit (Toronto)

LiveLeak: Footage From the Front Line

[RAW VIDEO] - Police hit protesters with clubs in order to drive the defiant crowd back. Amateur video shot from cameraman standing in front of the police captures the violence.

Toronto was today counting the cost of rioting as a group of anarchists torched police cars and smashed storefronts close to the G20 summit.

Bill Blair, the city's chief of police, admitted officers had struggled to control the crowds, who at times numbered several thousand. He said 75 people had been detained, including some he believed were ringleaders of the violence that lasted through the afternoon and evening, after several hundred masked protesters broke away from a larger, peaceful demonstration.
