Acts of Police Violating the guidelines and principles on the use of force、Obsurcting journalists' reporting

On 7th October, police chased at Nathan Road in Mongkok, Kowloon. When there was no sight of protesters, police, without obtaining any search warrant, attempted to step into a private building block and reporters were being driven by shields and batons without any proper reason, thus they were unable to perform reporting.
