Riot police have stormed several shopping centres in Hong Kong in a bid to thwart more pro-democracy protests

He said the other wounded were in more serious condition than Chiu who was seen on TV holding the piece of his ear in a plastic bag with bloody hands.Police made several arrests as protesters shouted "black police!", a reference to their perceived brutality.

Police fired tear gas outside the East Hotel in Taikoo Shing to try to break up the crowds. They then left. "This is out of control. This was a peaceful protest. And these people are just local residents, we live around here," said Desmond Fong, 28, who works in marketing. He was out shopping for runners when the protest erupted.

There were also running battles, vandalism and scuffles in and around malls in the New Territories towns of Tai Po, Tuen Mun and Sha Tin, where police fired pepper spray as protesters hurled abuse. Protesters built a street barricade in Tai Po.
