Chaos engulfed Hong Kong's financial heart on Saturday night as police fired tear gas at petrol bomb-throwing protesters who took to the streets for a 13th straight weekend. Police had banned the demonstration on security grounds and on Friday arrested several key activists and legislators in a dragnet on pro-democracy figures. But Saturday afternoon, large crowds - many in their signature black T-shirts and under a colourful canopy of umbrellas - defied the order to snake through Hong Kong island, blocking roads and chanting 'reclaim Hong Kong, revolution of our times'. Police attempt to arrest protesters at a Hong Kong station and those which are demonstrating unauthorized could face up to give years in prison, according to Hong Kong police commander Kwok Pak Chung 🔥 #HK
