This was a pretty surreal scene - protesters had scattered and regrouped in one mall. When police moved in they were met with three floors of jeering protesters.pic.twitter.com/gXLpN3FKre

Our story on last night's clashes in Sha Tin: an upscale shopping mall in a residential area became the site of a brawl b/w riot police and protesters after a large peaceful march. Both sides are digging in for what many expect will be a summer of unrest.https://www.nytimes.com/2019/07/14/world/asia/hong-kong-sha-tin-protest.html …

Why are they chasing kids & shoppers I don’t see a single protester
-
The demonstration was finished, people were leaving or just walked pass by the shopping mall. But the police chased after them with no reason, and blocked different exit of the mall. HK police has no professions but chose to beat up residents to vent.

it is according to the law for one to disarm someone who pretends to be police.
-

Is SHK out of their mind ? So many kids n oldies in the mall. How could they allow the police to get in n xreate riot inside the mall ???!
-
You asked the right question. And also why our so called professional HK police would take a fight in a shopping mall full of civilians? Why it's so important to arrest those protesters?

"Riot police" escorting a family with kids to protect them from other "riot police" who might beat, tear gas, or shoot at them.

Why did the police enter the mall? - To protect innocent citizens and children! Those thugs have begun to use children as their meat shields! It’s too damn!

Think again Panda, nobody in The Mall was any threat. Police are trying to snatch-and-grab protestors and are following them. Hongkong people deserve far better policing and legal process than this........
-
Better? Look at France, UK and any other country , in the face of the same situation, the Hong Kong police have been quite restrained. A large number of protesters left the parade route to enter the mall, the police were obliged to stop it.
-
No, the police *surrounded* the protest route. Wouldn’t let the protestors leave. Then drove them back into a shopping mall where all the exits were blocked by cops. The police deliberately created this situation.
-
You’re so keen to jump to “support the police” that you don’t even care to find out the facts of the matter. I WAS there, and I’m telling you the police put everyone at risk by trapping hundreds of people in an enclosed space with residents/shoppers and then charging them.

What about this? I don't think these people are peaceful protesters. It is necessary for the police to take measures.pic.twitter.com/cOgUy7NyoO

Once you trap and attack people, any counter action is self-defence. People were trying to leave. The police had ZERO REASON to go into the mall. If they had stayed outside, the crowd would have dispersed as it had been trying to do for hours.
-
The police wanted violence, chased people to unleash violence, and after starting the fight go “we had no choice, they attacked us”. No, you start the fight, you own the fight. And most of those cops are wearing no ID numbers so we have no way to make official complaints.
