Experts say that most tear gas injuries are blunt force trauma caused by a canister, and we found examples of Hong Kong police firing at people, such as freelance filmmaker Ryan Lai being struck in the head. Tear gas is meant to be used at the edge of crowds and below knee-level.pic.twitter.com/SkzOAxKHXs

The Hong Kong police did that too, pepper-spraying right into the faces of protestors as well as shooting rubber bullets at protestors in Taikoo MTR station
