And this cop on a motorcycle looks to be intentionally targeting protesters:
Barely 9 o’clock in the morning, and across the other side of town, in Kwai Fong, a traffic cop gone berserk on a motorcycle is running protesters over. Several injuries reported. Watch till the very end. It’s very disturbing. pic.twitter.com/KlAeEIGGLA
