Protesters in Hong Kong used lasers to confuse riot police who launched tear gas to disperse crowds as violence escalated in another night of chaos. Anti-government activists resisted officers and lit bonfires on Saturday, after being stopped from reaching the airport earlier in the day during a security crack down. It comes as police ignored German Chancellor Merkel renewed pleas for a peaceful solution to the political turmoil during her trip to Beijing, calling for the 'violence' not to end in 'catastrophe'. The Hong Kong protests have overshadowed a three-day visit Merkel had planned to use to strengthen ties between Chinese markets and German businesses suffering a slowdown at home. #HK

Formula 3 driver Alex Peroni, 19, was launched through the air after hitting a raised kerb in a terrifying crash at the Monza race track in Milan today. The Australian teenager remarkably walked away unscathed after his car flipped in the air three times before landing on its roof.
