Police Call Paramedics "Trash" and Obstruct Medical Treatment
On November 8 in Tuen Mun, riot police refused to let paramedics from the Fire Services Department cross the cordon line to treat an injured arrestee. Police questioned the paramedics for reminding the reporters to film.
Police also repeatedly claimed that they would lodge an complaint to the head of Fire Services Department and warned that they have the power to replace paramedics. During the standoff, police video-recorded the paramedics.
Police then took away the said arrestee and insisted that no one was injured. One paramedic said this is "nonsense" as they were trying to diagnose. The paramedic said a police called him "trash". Another police denied. As the paramedic asked whether or not the person who humiliated him is a police, the police ordered the paramedic to leave.

Citizens Lay Down White Flowers on 2-Year Anniversary of Student Protester's Death
Today (November 8) marked the second year since the passing of pro-democracy Hong Kong student #ChowTszLok. Citizens around the city brought brocades of white flowers to the site of his fatal fall in remembrance.
During the anti-ELAB movement in 2019, Chow, a 22-year-old university student, fell from the 3rd floor of a car park in Tseung Kwan O as police clashed with civilians in nearby streets.
He died from his injuries in hospital 4 days later, on November 8, 2019.
A Coroner’s inquest was conducted in January 2021 to determine cause of Chow’s death. However, as the jury was unable to decide the causes and circumstances of his death, the coroner pronounced an open verdict.
