Protestors in Hong Kong targeted the city's metro system on Sunday, going on an arson spree in the Wan Chai district.
The mobs resorted to this vandalism a week ago by setting ablaze a Central MTR station exit and causing extensive damage to numerous MTR stations.
Repairs for the damage stood at HK$10 million. In the past two weeks alone, about 90 stations were vandalized.
Senior government officials and MTR management condemned the attack on the city's metro system that serves millions of people on a daily basis.
