Police ask protesters to report violent members

TORONTO - Police Chief Bill Blair has sent a warning to protesters that any violent members should be reported to the police.

Blair tells The Sun that these rioters will likely manipulate the large crowds in order to incite violence.

Toronto Police are expecting many different kinds of protesters for the upcoming G-20 events, and are seeking the help of more peaceful protesters to keep an eye out for trouble makers who might try to start a riot.

But authorities are also concerned that hardcore anarchists will try to sneak into Canada through remote land border crossings. The U.S. border officials are stepping up searches and vehicle examinations along the Niagara River in order to curb the possibility of such an occurrence.

John Clarke of the Ontario Coalition Against Poverty said that American and European protesters will start to arrive over the next few weeks.

Certain protests are expected to be underway before the start of the summit.

The first large pre-summit protest took place on Tuesday.
