Hundreds attack Hong Kong police station after Tseung Kwan O march turns ugly, with police warning they will disperse protesters
- Earlier, thousands took to the streets in New Territories district in an approved march against the now-shelved extradition bill
- Event follows night of chaos in Mong Kok, Tsim Sha Tsui and Wong Tai Sin

Hundreds of Hong Kong protesters were on Sunday night occupying roads outside Tseung Kwan O railway station, after a brief stand-off around the police station.
Shortly after 6pm, police warned of a dispersal operation as protesters threw bricks and other items at the force’s compound, breaking multiple windows.
But about 10 minutes after the warning, protesters were gone. They later occupied the roads outside the MTR station, about half an hour’s walk from the scene of the stand-off.
Police gave the estimate of crowd size at 27,000 at its peak. At 2.30pm on Sunday, a sizeable crowd gathered at Po Tsui Park in the eastern New Territories for a march to Velodrome Park, with attendance surging as the procession advanced. Meanwhile on Hong Kong Island, all eyes were on a 5pm rally in Belcher Bay Park and whether protesters would march to Beijing’s liaison office, which is nearby.
Water barricades were placed outside the liaison office, apparently to prevent protesters from storming in. More than 20 police officers stood watch.
