Here’s raw footage I’ve recorded from Chantelle and Megan’s live feeds (https://www.facebook.com/ChantelleBaker) as Police move in violently on the protesters.

Police punch and pepper spray the protesters. A large number dangerously rush the protesters. Many people are hurt. At least two police fall to the ground as their colleagues walk over their own.

At around 6 AM, police moved in, securing the library, removing tents and setting up a perimeter in riot gear. Near the entrance to Parliament grounds, the police then started removing tents on the pavement, including a cooking area, using pepper spray on many innocent people.

As of around 8:30 am, police started removing protester vehicles with forklifts.

Sue Grey, Nelson lawyer and co-leader of the Outdoors Party, said (https://t.me/laron_g_s/5334) the Police Commissioner has been threatened with his job unless he removes the protesters.
