With protests still continuing in Hong Kong, the violent protests have taken a even more violent turn. With a new police plan placed in by the government it has made efforts to remove protesters out of public places and cause less of a public scene. This article highlights the event of the removal of 200 protesters from a inner city university with a violent conflict between the protesters and government  police officials.  This event included the police asking protesters to leave before they used water cannons and tear gas to remove the group. In retaliation to the tear gas a protester fired a bow and arrow at police officials and striking a media officer. Majority of students at these inner city universities have used the campuses as safe spaces to stay and protest and now is a common space for all protesters.
