Riot police made a speedy retreat with their van as protesters chase them down Connaught Rd Central.
Civilians on the footbridge are cheering for protesters.

Translation. Centre: Traffic police fired live round at unarmed protester. Right: The victim of Nov 11 shooting only happened to not be your family / friend (i.e. it could be anyone).pic.twitter.com/wAQaVChauq
Rumour has it that police enforcements are gathering at IFC, so protesters are creating road blocks with bricks.

A man in blue shirt smashed the bus window on Connaught Rd Central with a brick, which prompted black-clad protesters to surround him in disapproval.
The man quickly walked off the scene unharmed.

Protesters have fortified Connaught Rd Central on all sides with rubber pipe, bricks and a double-decker bus. No cars can come through.
The idea is that if riot police arrives, the roadblocks will give protesters enough time to disperse.

Situation remains calm on Connaught Rd Central since riot police refuse to show up.
I guess the question is what will protesters do once lunch time is over and office workers return to work?

Without any police presence, protesters voluntarily backed off from main road and seemingly ended the lunchtime protest.
Some people are saying that their aim is actually to draw away police force from the current standoff at CUHK.

Translation.
1) In the name of the deceased, I beg you to go on strike.
2) Many roads which do not exist in this world are willed into existence with each new person tredding its path.
3) [Insert Gary Oldman in Darkest Hour.]

Apology note from protesters who spray painted the bus window.
"Sorry Citybus, but the government left us no choice."

Long clip. This bus driver was negotiating with protesters over whether he should give up the bus and let it become a roadblock. The driver eventually relented and let his passengers walk out.

Riot police has arrived.
No tear gas fired just yet. The smoke in video is coming from fire started by protesters.

Riot police swooped in and tried to arrest as many protesters as possible, but the protesters disappeared long before they arrived.
As usual, situation has devolved into a shouting match with average civilians.

There are no more protesters at the scene. Police are marching down Queen's Road Central, chasing away normal civilians who are just passing Central by chance.

Nothing to see here. Totally normal day in HK. (But seriously, there's nothing interesting left to see, protesters are all gone.)pic.twitter.com/6JQLo2DMkc
