\nHONG KONG\u2014Police arrested 511 people who refused to leave a street in the financial district Wednesday, a day after a huge crowd marched across the city to mark the anniversary of the city’s handover to China by denouncing interference from Beijing and demanding democratic elections.<\/p>\n

Those arrested were mostly students who had vowed to stay in the park in the city’s Central district until 8 a.m. Police began clearing the park in the early morning hours and the last students were taken at that time after the crowd counted down to 8 a.m.<\/p>\n

Hong Kong will see a ‘rough period’ in politics over the next six months and possibly a new mass street protest, says Danny Gittings of the University of Hong Kong. The WSJ’s Ramy Inocencio recaps July 1st protests marking the city’s return to China.<\/p>\n

Some of those taken away by police shouted and struggled, while others walked or were carried silently. Police held signs over the crowd telling them to board police buses.<\/p>\n
