0:21Now PlayingOn fire: Here’s how clashes between protesters and police escalated on Tuesday night at the Chinese University of Hong Kong.
Hong Kong’s security chief John Lee cautioned that “unthinkable” consequences may come if violence continued, as the city’s financial center braced for a third-straight afternoon of protest.
The government remained confident in its ability to contain the chaos, Chief Secretary Matthew Cheung -- the city’s No. 2 official -- said, as he and Lee briefed reporters following morning traffic disruptions by protesters. Demonstrators had returned to Chinese University of Hong Kong and further rallies were expected in the financial hub Wednesday afternoon.
Commuters packed onto the first trains Wednesday morning as activists continued to impede rush-hour traffic in a show of anger over the government’s response and police tactics. Several MTR Corp. services including the entire East Rail Line and parts of the Kwun Tong and West Rail lines were already shut due to vandalism and protest actions. Numerous bus lines were halted and several schools had suspended classes.
