J. : “At the worst time i think there three people on top of me and i had a hard time breathing”
“Some of us were sitting down while other were standing and the police pushed the people standing so they fell on us. At the worst time i think there three people on top of me and i had a hard time breathing.
Then they used pepper-spray on all of us and were pummeling others with their batons.
One person was bitten by a dog and another was taken to hospital.
After running away they threw teargas on us.”
