Hong Kong police officers arrested two people and took away 10 others on Wednesday as some residents brought flowers and candles to commemorate the 36th anniversary of the Tiananmen Square crackdown.

The force said a mainland Chinese woman, 26, was spotted behaving suspiciously on Garden Road in Central during the day and was arrested for failing to produce an identity document, while a man, 24, was apprehended at night in Causeway Bay on suspicion of obstructing police officers.
