"Protesters amuse themselves playing with the sirens and lights in two police cruisers inexplicably driven into the crowd and then abandoned in the middle of the street. Calling in to dispatch, making aeroplane noises on the mike for the crowd, and handing out tickets - it's all rather jovial.
Kid lights a paper fire on the passenger seat, someone else puts it out, and a short altercation about safety ensues. Another guy writes on the cruiser in green paint : "This is bait, aka a prop.""
Creekside also has a Toronto Star photo of a protester who was overcome by smoke trying to put out the fire - which is more than the police themselves tried to do - I have yet to see any evidence that the 19,000 member 1 billion dollar security force did anything to try to stop the so called "black bloc" protesters while they were rampaging.

This comes on the heels of a video that emerged yesterday which appears to show police in black bloc garb and people in full or partial black bloc garb running behind police lines for protection:
Given that Chief Blair admits that he sometimes lies about official police matters this is yet another reason why we need a public inquiry.
