G20 Police Arrest Buses Full of Protestors
I was inline to be arrested next, a female riot cop came for me. I asked that my hands not be tied behind my back as my shoulder shockets, arms and spine are very damaged. She escorted me through hundreds of police officers behind the lines and told me I wasn't being arrested because of the power-wheelchair.
I was given a lecture on protesting and having legal help phone numbers written on my arm as advised by the Toronto Mobilization Network, whom I had also called earlier, when it was clear we had been purposely blocked in and they were starting to arrest people one by one.

G20 Riot Cops Herding Protesters at Queen Spadina
Riot Cops have blocked all sides, have LRAD, and start herding in
Protesters and bystanders tighter and tigher and being abusive so they
can arrest people one by on, which clearly was the plan from the beginning of being surrounde. I am still holding on to the railing, unable to sit because of close quarters and my power-wheelchair had been abducted by Riot Police on the other side

G20 Riot Police take my Power-wheelchair
Queen & Spadina June 27th, I had gotten out of my power-wheelchair to film I
can't stand long or walk much. It was getting difficult to stand and I
made an attempt to get back to my power-wheelchair as Riot Cops moved in closer
& dragged (it was locked so the wheels and controls won't move) it behind them, and damaging it just as I approached, and I was ignored as I yelled out that it was mine.

G20 Citizens Abduction by Police Queens Park Pt 2
G20 Protestors blocked off at Queen's Park in Toronto, who are trying to get to other protestors further south. Scare tactics and Citizen abductions and arrests follow quickly by police. I am in power-wheelchair most of the time, can't lift much or stand long, and have to keep moving as the Riot Police keep rushing forward. I couldn't use the make shift steady cam I used prior for the wheelchair as it would be too low to film in a crowd in close quarters.
