The anti-revision storm has not subsided. After about one week of "truce" before and after the district election, the "war" reignited in the past weekend. There were rallies and processions in many places in Hong Kong and Kowloon. Yesterday (December 1), at night, police and civilians clashed again in Mong Kok, teardrop bombs and rubber bullets flew horizontally. This has continued until the early hours of today (December 2), during which time the "private" incident occurred again. Some riot police officers rushed to the siege and did not cause a bloody case.

At 2 am, the number of demonstrators around the junction of Nathan Road and Argyle Street in Mong Kok has decreased significantly, but a large number of riot police are still on alert. In time, a man wearing a gray shirt and carrying a rucksack was accused of shooting the "headshot" of the demonstrators on the scene, causing dissatisfaction, and a dispute broke out between the two sides. The man once again quarreled with the reporter.

During the protest, the demonstrator chased the man with anger, and the man in the gray shirt immediately evaded. When the two sides chased to Argyle Street near Langham Place, the man was overtaken by several men in black. Some people used umbrellas. As a weapon attack, the man in the gray shirt fell unbalanced and fell to the ground, while another man in black kicked him with "make up for more feet". He rolled on the ground for a while and his pants were almost loose, revealing the "stock market". Stand up again, hobbling back to the sidewalk.

Since the riot police were on alert nearby, they quickly arrived after hearing the news. More than a dozen riot police officers cleared it up. Some police officers took their shoulders to inquire about the situation. Another police officer told reporters, "I am so nervous. Someone Injured! "At last the police officer took the man away. He was still furious at the time, but no obvious injuries were seen. It is unknown whether he was eventually sent to hospital.
