Hong Kong protests now witnessed clashes between police and protesters through tear gas, petrol bombs and fired arrows out the university area.

In the early week, protestors blocked the roads after the death of a 22-year old protestor, which led disruption in the city's public transport system.
 	The Police and China's People's Liberation Army (PLA) soldiers attempted to clear the roads by removing the blocks from roads.
 	This led protesters to start fires on the street and threw petrol bombs on the police.
 	The authorities responded with tear gas and water cannons during the clash for a long time.
 	Pertaining to this, the government has announced the shut again of all schools as protests are expected to continue across the city.
