Hong Kong police arrest 18-year-old man after he fired a single shot with a pistol at officers late on Friday evening - officials
Hong Kong protesters gather outside a detention center in Lai Chi Kok to demand the release of protesters, in Hong Kong, China, December 20, 2019.
Steve Li, a Senior Superintendent of the Police Organised Crime and Triad Bureau said early on Saturday that the man had been subdued by police after he’d fired a shot in the northern Tai Po district. No one was injured. “At the moment, all we know, our information shows he was hoping to use it during a protest and cause chaos and to hurt police officers,” Steve Li, a senior superintendent of the Police Organised Crime and Triad Bureau, told reporters on the scene.
On Friday evening, hundreds of Hong Kong anti-government activists gathered outside a detention centre, demanding the release of arrested activists and denouncing a police crackdown on a fund-raising platform supporting protesters in need.
