@AntiFashGordon I'm on the stream. Status: police reinforcing rear of precinct, about to shoot out parking lot lamps to camo themselves. Police resupply of barricades on scene. No authorized CS gas due to officer mask fatigue.
Hot mics all over the place, sloppy comms from police. Targeting specific protestors with projectiles. Police appear to have limited medic relief due to supply chain constraints
Possibility of police vehicle moving into Target parking lot to disrupt protestors hardened position there.
Police trailer with light resupply inbound in white trailer.
Police appear to have identified the source of some rocks
Police say perhaps they are being overrun. This wouldn't be as much of a problem, except their barricade resupply guy told 19,000 people his mobile phone # over the comms. He may be getting extra calls tonight
One officer took a rock to the neck. My guess is more CS gas is imminent shortly.
Police will not let EMS through to help an injured protestor. As far as I could tell
Most tactical comms seem to have switched to an encrypted channel, but some folks still chatting on the old channel
Encrypted police radios are P25 trunked lines that are all the rage these days.
It seems at least a few cops on comms did not receive the note to switch to channel 5. Mostly supply chain replenishment folks and perimeter watch.
Cops reconnoitering into the precinct, calling for resupply of 40mm green tips
Police moving in heavy gear to hardened protest position near bus shelter. Interesting to see what happens when they're in the open for a period of time
