Hong Kong police evict protesters who stormed parliament
Police firing tear gas have evicted protesters who stormed and ransacked Hong Kong's parliament.
Activists
had occupied the Legislative Council (LegCo) building for hours after
breaking away from a protest on the anniversary of Hong Kong's transfer
of sovereignty to China from Britain.
After midnight (16:00 GMT), hundreds of police secured the building following a warning to protesters to clear it.
It follows weeks of unrest in the city over a controversial extradition law.
