Can’t even enjoy the first pint in 4 months, had to come check out Nathan Rd. Line of cop vans lingering, further north big crowds of people peacefully gathered to chant.
Stalled traffic was turned around both sides, then the sudden sound of whistles (usually used to denote incoming police assault) had everyone moving out of the road. Now back to calmly waiting. The cop vans moved south on Nathan to consolidate.
Sounds coming from sides of Nathan Rd, people unsure where the attack will come from. Sirens all over. Might do a cheeky livestream at some point once I get a feel for the angle of attack.
Cops coming south on Portland St, both sides, just near Langham Place.
One group remained static, another is heading west on Shantung to clear a small barricade there.
Oh look, I messed up the threading already. Meanwhile back on Nathan Rd I found ALL THE COPS. A little old uncle was giving them verbals, and he had to be ushered away for his own safety.
This was supposed to be in this thread. Yeah, I’m a little rusty due to the corona intermission. https://twitter.com/hongkonghermit/status/1265657182000787457?s=21 https://twitter.com/hongkonghermit/status/1265657182000787457
