    The Chinese and #HongKong governments must immediately deescalate the situation and exercise restraint at #PolyU. More violence & bloodshed will only make things worse. The world is watching. #StandWithHongKong #DemocracyForHK

        Thanks Rep. Mr. McGovern speaking up for us. Students were asked to leave by the Y Core exit in Poly U and then the #HongKongPolice just arrested them immediately there. This will be a bloody long night for hongkongers... please save us. We beg you...pic.twitter.com/G9516tuFj5

        They’re stuck inside. Police asked them to leave but they block every exit and arrest the first group of ppl who left.

        They arrested all the first aid and reporters coming out from Y Core, which is the exit that the police tell them to leave. Now without first aid and a lot of reporters, it’s harder to know the truth and what are the police going to do.pic.twitter.com/5QOS6JwM2L

        #HongKongPoliceTerrorists are treating FIRST-AIDERS & JOURNALISTS like criminals, holding them captive. Not only university students are inside #PolyU, but high school kids too.
