tear gas and rubber bullets fired by police at peaceful demonstrators
BBC reporting bricks and projectiles thrown at Police
PhilDAS-
That was retaliation, once the police realised that the crowd wasn’t dispersing after the debate was called off for the day they started to fear for another long occupy protest. BBC have form for reporting retaliation as aggression against police. There’s still a few out there and it will be interesting to see if it starts up again today.

kicking off here in HK tear gas and rubber bullets fired by police at peaceful demonstrators. one kid hurt badly by rubber bullet. Apparently no warning given to crowd befor they fired.
lots of over eager police ready to use force I think.
think it could kick off quite badly tonight if it continues.
