Pro-police group bring gifts of noodles for officers

About 50 people rallied outside Mong Kok Police Station on Saturday, presenting officers with noodles and snacks to express their gratitude to the force for its handling of anti-government protests.



The group, calling themselves Hong Kong Force of Peace, shouted slogans praising officers’ loyalty and "courage" in stopping violence and restoring order.



They also praised the police for making arrests over what the force said were explosives and gun finds.



The rally only lasted for ten minutes, during which time some of the group got into an argument with passers-by who made it clear they were not so fond of the police.



Members of the group were invited into the station to take photos with riot police officers. They gave the officers noodles, cakes, snacks and tissues as gifts.
