     At around 4.30pm today (November 10), some violent protestors recklessly damaged shops in Kowloon Tong Festival Walk. To stop the crime, some Police officers attended scene and arrested several offenders. During the arrest, a large group of protestors were clamouring, some even attacked police officers, resulted in the escape of the arrested person. Police officers therefore used minimum necessary force to effect the arrest action.

As some violent protestors are still gathering in the mall, Police appeal to bystanders to leave immediately. Members of the public are advised to mind their own safety and stay tuned to announcements of the mall.
