Officers take hundreds into custody after sit-in protesters refuse to leave
Hong Kong police said on Wednesday that officers used appropriate force to restore public order when an unauthorized sit-in that followed a mass protest rally on Tuesday blocked traffic along a major road in the city's Central district.
A total of 511 protesters were taken into custody for illegal assembly and obstructing officers after the police forcibly cleared roads for morning business.
