Just days before the 10th anniversary of N30, the biggest day of rioting at the 1999 World Trade Organization ministerial meeting in Seattle, protesters went on a rampage overnight in Geneva at the latest WTO meeting.
Cars were set on fire and police said perhaps 200 of the 3,000 protesters were intent on violence. Authorities responded with water cannons, tear gas and rubber bullets.
Watch this space next week, as InvestigateWest will have an exciting and related announcement.
