Attention duty announcers, radio and TV stations:

Please broadcast the following message as soon as possible and repeat it at suitable intervals:

     At around 10pm, a large number of violent protestors vandalised facilities at Taikoo MTR Station, including escalators and CCTV. They also illegally occupied King's Road.  Having given repeated warnings but in vain, Police officers have deployed tear gas and appropriate force to disperse the violent protestors.

     In Tuen Mun, a large number of violent protestors built barricades along Tuen Mun Road, Tuen Mun Rural Committee Road and Tuen Hing Road near Tuen Mun Town Hall, paralysing traffic between Kowloon and Tuen Mun.  Some of them also damaged Tuen Mun Government Offices and broke the glasses. 

     Police warn all violent protestors to stop all illegal acts and leave immediately. Drivers and members of the public are advised to avoid travelling to the area and stay tuned to the latest traffic arrangement.
