Police have said that they detained two teens with press cards at the Harbour City mall yesterday to protect them, and they were released to their guardians later, RTHK reports. They contacted their guardians who collected them from the police station. The 12-year-old was wearing a reflective vest and livestreaming events at Harbour City when police officers surrounded him. Later Student Depth Media, an online news outlet originally formed by eight students earlier this year, said the two students worked for them. They also said police behavior had interfered with the student reporters’ work.
