A video of a photojournalist shouting at police during the extradition protests in Hong Kong has gone viral.

In the video, posted on June 12 by Twitter user @HongKongHermit, a photographer is seen shouting at police officers who are preparing to use tear gas on journalists. The scene took place on Harcourt Road in Hong Kong during massive demonstrations against a bill that would allow extraditions to China.

“Press! You’re shooting at the press!”



Josep (hope I spelled that right) had balls of steel to call out these cops, on this day, at this time. pic.twitter.com/W5CpdgF4o9 Hong Kong Hermit (@HongKongHermit) 12 juin 2019

“Press! You’re shooting at the press!” the photographer, a bald man who appears to be his 30s or 40s, is first heard yelling in the video. He is seen on a ramp, facing police officers on the road below. Some officers are heard yelling, “Get out!” When one appears to make a move to discharge pepper spray at the photographer, the photographer taunts, “Do it! Do it!”

“Still Hong Kong, not China. Not yet,” the photographer says.

The video has already racked up more than 500,000 views and drew wide support from online users, who called him “brave” and a “warrior.”

“I was literally cheering for him when he said these things,” one user wrote.

“Thanks for speaking up for the HK people,” another responded
