Hong Kong: Hong Kong police say they have arrested 37 people as pro-democracy protesters return to the city's streets for a second night in a row.
The police said in a statement Thursday that protesters blocked five roads overnight in the Mong Kok neighborhood and disobeyed police orders to clear out.
The age of the arrested protesters ranged from 13 to 76.
Police arrested 12 protesters in the same neighborhood overnight Wednesday, also after they had blocked roads.
Thousands of protesters occupied three of the city's busiest neighborhoods for more than two months over the fall. They demanded the semi-autonomous city be allowed to pick its chief executive in 2017 from an open list of candidates.
The Chinese government has insisted a committee believed friendly to Beijing pick the candidates.
