In Olympic news, police in Hong Kong threw two pro-Tibet protesters out of the city’s Olympics equestrian arena early on Saturday. The pair had smuggled a Tibetan flag into the venue but were forcefully dragged away as they tried to reach into their bag for the flag. One of the protesters, Christina Chan, described what happened.

Christina Chan: “Yeah, I actually — I was dragged out by the police. So, you can see, like, I’ve been bleeding from like being dragged on the floor. And then this is from the security guards. This is from the security guards inside, when they had this like cardboard that was like slicing my arm open. In the beginning we hoped to actually go in, and we hoped to hold up a Tibetan flag and also this other banner, you know, in protest of the Communist Party’s one-party rule in China.”
