from ZeroHedge:
After several weeks of peace in Hong Kong, tens of thousands of protestors took to the streets over the weekend and participated in an illegal march that led to hundreds of stores trashed, Chinese banks targeted, and several metro stations firebombed, reported Reuters.
At the start of the weekend, Hong Kong Police denied pro-democracy protestors the right to march through an upscale shopping district.
Then by Sunday, thousands of black-clothed protesters clashed with police, exchanging tear gas and petrol bombs that sent the city into chaos once more.
Protests firebombed the Tsim Sha Tsui police station on the Kowloon peninsula.
