Marc Mysterio Caught in The G20 Riots

We have a follow-up to yesterday's story about Marc Mysterio. Apparently Marc was undaunted by losing Canadian Top Model Kirsten Comerford for his video shoot (due to the riots in Toronto) and went ahead with it anyway. But he himself got to see the riots up-close and in-person as a result.

"We were just driving down the street, and a riot between cops and protesters had broken out in the street in front of us as we traveled between locations - the cops even banged on our hood with their baton threatening us even though we were boxed in by traffic - a frightening situation, to say the least" said Marc Mysterio in a statement.

"What is the real purpose of this summit? Why could it not be effectuated over Skype? It just seems very capricious and indifferent to not only hold this in the 3rd largest market in North America, but also to fence in the downtown-core, post-apocalyptic style - did they not realize that this will inflict major trauma upon the citizens of our city? Honestly, I feel traumatized and I'm sure the cops do as well and, moreover, after the G20 is over, I hope these tensions will not linger." -
