Around the same time, on Johnston Road / Fleming Road intersection in Wanchai, multiple reporters were also hit with liquid blasts during a police operation. Note, these "water" cannons are actually firing pepper spray liquid which stings the victim.

Members of Student Politicism arrested when setting up street booth

#StudentPoliticism, a local organisation, first planned to set up a street booth in Causeway Bay. However, due to heavy police deployment and the cordon lines, the organisation had to relocate the booth in Mongkok.

Members of the organisation prepared leaflets to be distributed, but were surrounded by a large group of police. The police demanded all citizens on site to leave, otherwise they would be fined for violation of the 599G gathering ban.

At around 1700, three core members of Student Politicism and one volunteer were arrested, including the convenor #WongYatChin.
