Bridge Set Alight During Clashes Between Hong Kong Police And Protesters

A pedestrian bridge was set alight during clashes between police and protesters in Hong Kong on November 17.

Video captured by the SocRec news website shows the fire raging on the elevated walkway between Hong Kong Polytechnic University and Hung Hom station.

Police and protesters clashed throughout the day, with police firing tear gas and water cannon at protesters who had gathered outside the university.

Some protesters responded by firing items via catapult. Local reports also said a police officer was injured in the leg by an arrow fired by protesters. Credit: SocRec via Storyful
