The United States Border Patrol in Canada confiscated Alessandro Cortini, a known Italian synthisist, around 3:30 AM local time this morning. Details are unknown regarding the circumstances surrounding said confiscation and we only know as much as Rob has posted on the
nin.com photoblog (I'm just putting this up now so I can avoid a bunch of emails later because I'm awake at an ungodly hour this morning), so we're uncertain how long Alessandro will be detained and if this is going to throw a wrench into the tour.
We'll wait and see if we need to print up some "Free Alessandro!" t-shirts.
