Hong Kong police use tear gas to try to disperse protests

Hong Kong police used tear gas on Saturday to try to disperse anti-government protests on the eastern side of the Kowloon peninsula, across the harbour from Hong Kong island.

The protesters marched in the gritty Kwun Tong industrial district of the Chinese-ruled city. It was the first use of tear gas in about 10 days amid protests that have persisted for nearly three months. (Writing by Nick Macfie; Editing by Paul Tait)
