Reporters Attacked by Police "Water" Cannon Trucks Multiple Times
At around 1700, a RTHK reporter was hit by water cannon the second time, requiring medical attention from volunteer first aid. 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.
