Newsom to change torch route

You saw this coming (heck the mayor's people said the route wasn't fixed from the start) - Brittney Gilbert at CBS 5's Eye on Blogs reports that Mayor Gavin Newsom is changing the Olympic Torch route, and this time it won't be published.

More on this as it comes...

(Hat Tip to SFist)

Update 1: Video with Newsom's comments is up.

Update 2: The Chronicle reports that the route "could change up to and even during the relay. Police said security plans would include having officers run alongside torchbearers to protect them and the flame from any protesters who might try to disrupt the run."
