Hong Kong office workers, schoolmates denounce police shooting of teenHong Kong office workers and high-school students turned out in their hundreds under a sweltering midday sun on Wednesday to denounce a policeman for shooting and wounding a teenager during the most violent clashes in nearly four months of unrest. More than 100 people were wounded during Tuesday's turmoil, the Hospital Authority said, as anti-China demonstrators took to the streets across the Chinese-ruled territory, throwing petrol bombs and attacking police who responded with tear gas and water cannon. Protesters outside the wounded student's school, the Tsuen Wan Public Ho Chuen Yiu Memorial College, chanted "Free Hong Kong", condemned the police and urged a thorough investigation.
