Hong Kong police arrest 400 protesters on New Year's Day
Hong Kong police arrested nearly 400 protesters as a march on New Year's Day (January 1) spiraled into chaotic scenes.
Organizers estimated just over one million people took part, but police said 60,000 protesters attended at the march's peak.
The atmosphere grew tense in several districts on Hong Kong island, as hundreds of protesters dug in, forming road blocks, setting fires and throwing a few petrol bombs.
