Ok back from negotiations but they say would like to talk to students first before they share the results of the negotiation w the press (there’s a huge group of press blocking the road, students are farther back behind a barricade)

I cant explain how surreal it is to follow a Univ principle past a burnt out car, a fire and a line of protesters so he can give statement about his negotiations w police who fired tons of tear gas at the athletic field and made aggressive arrests here

Some of heaviest tear gas I’ve seen in part bc this standoff is taking place in a small area, police still on bridge and protesters only a few meters back. They’re doing best w leaf blower to clear all the tear gas smoke
