Police Continue to Search Civilians in Various Districts

1852 | #Mongkok
Riot police conducted stop and search on civilians at Dundas Street. 5 to 6 civilians were released afterwards.
Are reporters obstructing police from executing duty, or vice versa?

22:40 | Mong Kok
Outside of CTMA Centre, riot police subdued a protester and pressed him onto the ground. While reporters were arriving at the scene to cover the incident, they were ordered to step all the way back to the opposite side of street. More riot police came to the scene, seemingly trying to obstruct reporters from filming the process.

Moments later, reporters saw vaguely that the arrestee sat up with his head being wrapped in bandages. Riot police further demanded reporters to step back, probably intending to prohibit media coverage, while they frantically shot pepper spray on the group of departing reporters.
