Police fired rubber bullets and used tear gas against protesters, as the largest demonstrations in Hong Kong since 1997 continued.
Demonstrators in Hong Kong protesting a proposed bill that would allow people to be extradited to mainland China have been faced with police using rubber bullets and tear gas.
While the protests have been largely peaceful up until this point, on Wednesday police also used water cannons, pepper spray, and batons, as some people threw things they could find on hand, like traffic cones, at riot police.
