Watch police kicking the democracy protester in the middle of the video.
Hong Kong’s security chief said Wednesday that six police officers accused of kicking a pro-democracy protester have been reassigned. The police department is now reportedly carrying out an investigation into the incident.
Secretary of Security Lai Tung-kwok's announcement came after a local news network aired a video of six police officers taking a man around the side of a building, placing him on the ground and kicking him. Lai said that the officers were shifted to other posts. On Wednesday, police reportedly also used pepper spray to disperse protesters, who used umbrellas, which have become a symbol of the Occupy Central pro-democracy movement, to safeguard themselves.
