Hong Kong police use pepper spray to clear May Day protest by more than 100 protesters singing and chanting pro-democracy slogans in a shopping mall
The group of 100 protesters met at the New Town Plaza mall in Hong Kong's New Territories, where they sang the protest anthem Glory to Hong Kong and chanted 'glory to Hong Kong, revolution of our times'. It came despite social distancing restrictions in the city amid the coronavirus pandemic. Police stopped and searched protesters before demanding they leave. They used pepper spray to disperse those who had gathered before cordoning off the atrium to stop them returning.
