Edinburgh - Scottish police have said they would allow protesters to march to the edge of the G8 summit venue, hours after they cancelled a planned demonstration following outbreaks of violence.
After talks with organisers, Tayside Police said the march planned by G8 Alternatives could go ahead. Earlier police called off the march in the village of Auchterarder after demonstrators smashed car windows, threw rocks and attempted to blockade one of the main approach roads to the exclusive Gleneagles resort hosting the summit.
