Hong Kong police removed barricades erected by pro-democracy demonstrators in the business district, shrinking the protest site, after Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying said China won’t agree to their election demands.
After taking down some of the barricades, dozens of policemen faced off against demonstrators outside the main protest site in Admiralty. The police said they weren’t there to remove the crowd today.
