Police Pointed Guns at First Aiders and Ambulance Radio Mentioned Police Obstruction, Says First Aider

[Editor's note: UST student Chow is severely injured after falling in a carpark during police mass arrest operation in the night of Nov 4. Suspicions are raised towards the case. Read the full story: https://publielectoral.lat/guardiansofhongkong/9903]

This is a witness account of a first-aider called Hins who provided care for the 22-year-old boy at the scene:

It was around 1am on Nov 5 when volunteer first-aider Hins and his colleague heard a bystander said a young person Chow, aged 22, fell from the 3rd floor of a car park at Sheung Tak Estate. There were already 8 to 10 paramedics from the Fire Services Department providing basic first aid service when Hins arrived at the scene. Hins asked if the paramedics knew what happened, they said they had no idea but they heard the onlookers saying that the police were chasing after Chow earlier then somehow Chow fell.

Hins said, Chow’s situation seems very serious even though there was no apparent injuries because there was a significant loss of blood. Hins described the scene as frightening as Chow vomited blood. He then asked if the paramedics had called the ambulance and they said they already did.

Hins got extremely worried and kept asking the firemen when the ambulance was going to arrive as Chow’s pulse rate was dropping constantly. “We then heard from the radio that the ambulance could not get to the scene because it was stopped by the police”. Hins added, “I was very shocked because based on the patient’s situation, he needed to be sent to the Resuscitation Room right away.”

Hins also recalled the arrival of a large group of riot police 5 to 10 minutes after he and his colleague got to the scene. They pointed guns at them and demanded them to leave immediately as the scene is very dangerous. The paramedics did not agree. They then handed over Chow to Hins and his colleague and negotiated with the police. “We are trying to save someone’s life here”, the paramedic said, “There is no danger here. We don’t need you. Please leave”.
