Two Montreal men were found guilty of multiple G20 offences in Quebec Supreme Court Friday.

Youri Couture, now 25, was charged three years ago after he was caught on video surveillance throwing a rock through the window of a Starbucks at College and Yonge Sts. on June 26.

“He was dressed in mostly black clothing and covered his head with a black bandana and his face with a black-and-red bandana, to disguise his identity,” Toronto Police Const. Wendy Drummond said in a release.

The damage at Starbucks was $18,233.85, she added.

That same day, police said he threw a long wooden post over a crowd of protesters into a line of officers at Queen St. W and John St. His face was covered in the same black-and-red bandana, Drummond said.

Guillaume Constantineau, now 25, was seen smashing the window of a Winners store at 444 Yonge St., south of College St on June 26. The store was open at the time with numerous people inside.

Total damage to the store was $21,000.

Police said he also used a wooden stake to hit an officer over the head and stab at his riot shield.

“During all of these incidents Guillaume Constantineau was wearing a black mask over the lower portion of his face,” Drummond said. “This was in an effort to disguise his identity.”

Both men were found guilty of assault upon a peace officer, endangering the safety of the public and masking his face with intent to commit an indictable offence. They were sentenced to six months in custody.
