He also heard a man claiming that he "would not walk away" and that he was also holding a hard object. The demonstrators in, thought he was in a dangerous environment, so he put his hand on the handle of the gun. Later, a white-clothed man approached.

The first defendant bowed his head to avoid watching the clip
The prosecution began to present evidence today, and first broadcast the footage involved, including the shooting by the police officer. Some observers were emotionally crying when they saw the shooting.
Upon hearing this, the judge Xie Shen Zhihui reminded the observers not to speak out during the court hearing, and to leave the court if they are emotionally unstable.
Later, the emotionally unstable observers needed to leave with the support of others. The first defendant Zhou Baijun also kept bowing his head to avoid watching the clip during the broadcast.
Traffic police A, who fired the gun that day, confessed that he was responsible for assisting in handling public activities causing traffic obstruction when the incident occurred. When patrolling near the scene of the incident, he found traffic jams with his colleagues, so he and Superintendent B got off the vehicle to check.

I heard some people say there are dogs and black police, etc.
When he walked to the junction of Shau Kei Wan Road and Tai On Street, he found that the road was blocked. There were not only pedestrians on both sides of the road, but also people in black holding strips of hard objects.
He suddenly heard someone calling "a dog", "black police", etc., and felt unsafe.
Later, he saw two men tying ropes to block the road at a traffic light pole, so he stepped forward to stop and chased them, but the two ran into the crowd. He thought the situation was unsafe and did not chase them.
It’s hard to hear that I’m in trouble
At this moment, he turned around and found that Superintendent B was no longer behind him, so he was alone. He suddenly heard a man claiming: "Don't walk away." He thought he was in a dangerous environment, so he put his hand on the gun handle to guard and goodbye. More than 10 demonstrators approached, among them two to three were holding hard objects.
Think it can't be resisted with a baton or pepper spray
Suddenly he saw a man in white walking towards him, and there were 2 to 3 people following him behind him. At this time, he recalled multiple incidents of police officers being attacked. In those incidents, the police officers could not resist the attack with their batons, even Will be injured and guns robbed.
At that time, he also thought that using a baton or pepper spray could not resist, so he drew his gun and pointed it at the man in white.
