China warns of even tougher security measures in Hong Kong

Hong Kong faced a third straight day of chaos today following a night of intense battles between pro-democracy protesters and riot police at the Chinese University campus. The clashes followed an incident on Monday when police shot a protester and a man was set on



fire.

Protesters are demanding a right to freely elect their leaders, as well as an independent inquiry into police brutality. But China has steadfastly refused to offer any concessions and has instead warned of even tougher security measures.
