In downtown Houston right now, cops are telling people the protest is over, commanding them to get off the streets immediately or face arrest. Nobody is moving.
It’s starting. People are beginning to panic. Cops are blocking most exits. Lots of people tweeting that Polk Street still open to get out.
Thankfully a lot of people got out ok. Here is the moment where HPD decided the protest was over.
On the other side of the park, where it was harder to get out, those left were corralled by a goon squad and picked off one by one.
