Man arrested with weapons near G-20 summit site
A 53-year-old man in a car was arrested with five cans of gas and an array of weapons near the G-20 summit site in Toronto, security officials tell CNN's Jeanne Meserve.
Constable Samantha Nulle, with the Peel Regional Police, told CNN an officer pulled over a suspicious vehicle and found the man had gas cans, a crossbow, saws, hatchets, a winch, other weapons and cans filled with unknown substances.
Another official said that the man had pellet guns, chemical products and gas tanks in the car as well. The official said Hazmat teams are testing many of the chemicals right now.
At this point, Nulle said there were no specific signs the incident is linked to the G-20 summit.

He must've thought Bin Laden would be at the meeting.
Good work Toronto. These protestors for most part are disruptive, without purpose and cause more problems then problems they attempt to solve. And this is a free for all protest – protesting everything from Nepal, gay rights, pro choice, pro Hamas and pro islamlic rule in Israel...I'm in Toronto and have no idea what these protestors are all about other then being disruptive and loud
This guy is not a protester, just a simple woodsman, trying to get back to the woods where judgemental people like you are not around!!!
@bob you'll be the first one to volunteer to hop on the train to the fema camp
Gotta say, our Police are doing a great job, that is 2 bombing suspects in 48 hours. Plus finding 1.5 tonnes of ammonium nitrate that was taken without ID in 24 hours. Keep up the good work, our men and woman protecting us during this are making us proud!
Are you kidding me? he probably has nothing to do with the summit. Coincidence.
Are you retarded? The "bombing" suspect was a farmer buying fertilizer. Just happened his ID wasn't taken down. Cops have done nothing but be overzealous and turning the whole thing into a police state.
Well done Toronto police
You are, as usual, doing a great job – Thank You
yup, those pellet guns are real tools of evil.
You must remember....here in Canuck land we have ....including the guests security....approx. 20,000 personnel protecting this 1.3billion farce....yet...an SUV drove up to the secured area ....fired 3 shots....and ESCAPED....all while witnessed by the RCMP.....glad your pres is bringing his own guys....ours can't seem to see past the fence.....
I agree some items like a pellet gun are normal, but seriusly, who loads up the car with gas/chamicals and drives right past the security fence. Guy may just be a moron, but the police can't take that chance.
This has to be a coincidence.
If you head off to be some kind of domestic terrorist you don't TAKE YOUR DOG!
Homeless? Camping? Look at the list of things he had in his car, including a dog. Probably did not have a TV to know the G20 was even happening.
CNN, are you kidding me? this is not new york city, people in toronto have crossbows, gas cans, and hatchets in their car all the time. You guys are just culturally ignorant.
Why is it on the Canadian news as well, do they not know that either....
Um..we do?
Sure is news to me.... I always pack my ocar full of this kinda stuff and drive right to the closest security fence to cause c*ap, that is the issue, he may be just a dummy, then, glad is off the streets for now.
It's making headlines in Toronto because everyone here is walking on eggshells, waiting for something BIG to happen. We had a 5.0 magnitude earthquake here yesterday by the way. A few arrests have already been made by overzealous cops, and then sensationalized by overzealous reporters trying to hype this thing for all it's worth. This guy was probably returning from a camping trip.
He did not know why he was down there with those items...... enough reason to search. I don't care about the media, but, this is a simple thing,
Cop stops you, he see's a crossbow and asks where you are going? What are you doing in the downtown core....... uhhhhhhhh well you seee ummmm I am not sure......
they search and find gas/chemicals/chainsaw and crossbow and they guy can't offer an answer, they did the right thing, regardless of if the media blows it out of proportion.....
its a countryside sort of culture. I don't think this is in any way serious.
@sulm...countryside? it's the 5th largest city in north america. have you even been to toronto?
Glad we have an expert. He was downtown not in the bush, you can't buy half that stuff downtown, so he drove there with it, here is a part from Canadian news
Constable Hugh Smith said the man has since been arrested and an ongoing investigation is taking place. Smith also said the man seemed disoriented when asked about his purpose in the area.

no, canada, not toronto...toronto is a huge city, your right. But people come and go, its kind of different from new york city I think.
more sprawl....
serge...maybe he drove in and was driving back out? maybe visiting? geez....sure, maybe he was a crazy guy, but stop assuming.
Yes but you can't buy that stuff downtown and he drove there, and had no reason why he was there "seemed confused" enough reason to check him, and look what they found. If it was in your backyard you would care
Drove in and backed out, the downtown core is almost 20km.............. Pleaces that sell this stuff are not downtown, you have to drive in. Missing an exit is a mistake, packing your car with these items and driving to a security zone you have known about for months is stupidity if nothing else
"it's a countryside sort of culture...."
yes, it is. We all live in igloos, wear fur coats, drink beer and play hockey. And once a week we pay homage to our Dear Queen.
Oops my outlet in my snow hut melted in the 90F weather.......... whatever will I do........ Better load up my car with cas and chemicals and drive to the closest security fence 😉
"Can't but half that stuff downtown" ... do you live in downtown Toronto. I'm 20 feet from the security zone, and within a half mile of here, there are 3 sporting goods stores (where you can buy pretty much everything but the sticks and gas) and there are a few gas stations too... I"m not sure what this guy WAS doing...but it is Canada... and they DID tell people to leave the city. Camping/hunting is a good thing to do here on the weekends!
Yes I know the stores you are talking about. Then why, when he was stopped and asked what he was doing did he seem "confused"
The stores you are talking about (sporting goods stores) do not have the permits to sell regular gas, nor chamicals. Sure you can buy a crossbow downtown.
Point is, he is either too dumb to be able to say he was going/coming from camping or he was trying to get attention. Just look at the huge box on his car.........
lol, you're funny. god, i hope you're just being funny. omg...you can't be serious???
Holy crap Serge,,,, why is it so hard to see a guy prob living outside town "Getting away from opinionated people like you" coming into town to supply up! He prob doesn't know what a G-summit is, and hes already confused just being in town. geees!!!
You guys are the funny ones, coming in to downtown Toronto, to "gas up" You guys are nuts
HA HA HA that would be like driving to downtown Chicago to"gas up"
You have more of a chance finding these items outside the downtown core. If you did find them here, they would be priced higher then the out-skirts.
It is simple "sir, what are you doing with these items in your car by the security fence", if he replies I am going to ........ (Insert whatever here) he goes on his way. He did not know, after an hour he still did not know, so they arrested him. Sounds fair to me, but guess you guys always drive downtown with these items in you care not knowing why you are have them..... get real
Hey Serge, how many penises have you had in your anus today?
Sal – for you to think of that shows how odd you are. All opinions you have are null and void.
=) Have a good day
PLEASE LEAVE TORONTO. ALL OF YOU. WE DONT WANT IT HERE.
Last update....... what would you do if you saw these things in the car and asked the man what he was doing in the area, and was confused?
Constable Hugh Smith said the man has since been arrested and an ongoing investigation is taking place. Smith also said the man seemed disoriented when asked about his purpose in the area.

prob was an old guy with his dog living in his car during the city...he works there, probably even has a high paying job...but during the weekend goes to the suburbs...The guy prob didn't even know the G20 was going on.
during the week in the city*
Wouldn't want them to interfere with an Illuminati/NWO meeting
prob has alzheimers for crhist sake, just because people in the us with guns or bombs want to kill people, doesnt mean we here in canada have the same mentality
Right On ,,, and I live in the US!
Yes, we all have bombs in the US! What in the world are you talking about?
