2. peaceful arrests so far
looks like maybe 20 people stayed for arrest. So far no mace, tear gas or rubber bullets.

4. "came from out of nowhere" For me, that is highly suspicious.

5. it was very suspicious
and they said they disappeared just like they came. The other protesters went back to camp but not these "new" people. I wasn't there just watching it on live feed. Guy with the camera was not allowed any closer for better view.
