      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. #HongKongProtestspic.twitter.com/tsd9CgwwAT

      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.] #HongKongProtests #Centralpic.twitter.com/tmmtvL0BEw

      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. #HongKongProtestspic.twitter.com/DPJ9HjgBX3

      Latest feature of #HongKongProtests: Turning giant double-decker buses into barricades. After a small tug of war with protesters, the bus driver inadvertently turned the bus horizontal and blocked off the entire Connaught Road Central.pic.twitter.com/UbXyQAePuw

      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. #HongKongProtestspic.twitter.com/3dd7F1K74x

          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. #HongKongProtestspic.twitter.com/HtESltGZro

          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
