Press has stopped up the road from where police are, CUHK principal Rocky Tuan is w a group and negotiating w police, asked press to give them space to negotiate
Conversation
A protester just came down the street w a chainsaw revving, walking toward where police are stationed— a group of protesters stopped him, convinced him to put it down, turn it off and encircled him in a huge hug

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
Protesters are incredibly somehow still moving fwd up the bridge where police are, and despite fire that has been essentially nonstop

I legit don’t even know how they did this but protesters just carried the burnt out car that was on fire earlier this afternoon to the bridge?? And added it to the barrier, and cheered when they lifted it and tipped it on its side
