The police continue to broadcast messages asking protesters inside PolyU to surrender, choosing to describe them as “civilians”, and playing songs. Messages circulating on social media suggest that some are refusing to do so, and have written their wills. Photo: InMedia.pic.twitter.com/ZtRtvpOZrt
Outside PolyU on Gascoigne Road, a group of protesters are trying to break through police lines to carve out an escape route for those inside, but are rebuffed with tear gas.

Protests to try and divert police attention from PolyU — heeding the call on social media referring to the proverb to “encircle Wei to save Zhao” — break out across #HongKong. Riot police made some arrests in Tin Shui Wai, while Kowloon Bay is a flash point.
