Police Set No Way Out of PolyU
Students, “We're All Gonna Make Our Way Home!”

When being asked if they wanted to get out of PolyU, people inside said they did, but there was no way out.

At around 13:30 yesterday (Nov 18), the crowd decided to fight their way out. "This is the last time! We're all gonna make our way home!" One yelled to boost the crowd's morale.

They then rushed out to Cheong Wan Road, but the riot police then shot multiple rounds of tear gas and rubber bullets, which set several places on fire. Another group of riot police rushed down from the bridge and arrested a few of them.
