A Hong Kong university team looking for protesters still hiding after a 10-day siege by police only found one person after six hours.
Alexander Wai, vice president of Hong Kong Polytechnic University, said Tuesday the 50-person team comprised of counselors, medical staff, social workers and security personnel found a woman older than 18 who wasn’t a student at the school. A counselor was persuading her to leave the premises, Wai said.
