Anger against the government has built up since Tsang Chi-kin was shot at close range after he struck a police officer with a rod. Tsang was among seven people charged Thursday with rioting, which carries a penalty of up to 10 years in prison. He also faces two additional counts of attacking two police officers, punishable by up to six months in prison.
