Even as as leaders from the world's top economies gathered for the summit on Friday, anti-capitalist protesters set fire to cars, barricades, rubbish bins and wooden pallets in Hamburg.

Police reports claim that the violence which started on Thursday continued well into Friday, with agitators slashing the tires of a car belonging to the Canadian delegation to the G20 summit and smashing windows of the consulate of Mongolia.
