Anti-extradition bill protesters surrounded Hong Kong’s police headquarters on Friday following day-long occupations of streets and government buildings in Admiralty and Wanchai. On Saturday, police and sanitation workers cleaned up graffiti, barricades and washed the outer walls of the building, after it was pelted with hundreds of eggs.
