Protesters rallied in the district of Sha Tin on Sunday. Organizers say 115,000 people took part.

After a march, some protesters occupied a road and other areas. Police tried to drive them off, leading to skirmishes.

More scuffles broke out when police attempted to remove protesters from a shopping mall.

The first rally against the bill took place more than a month ago. Protesters are also critical of police actions during the demonstrations.

The legislation was designed to allow crime suspects in Hong Kong to be sent to mainland China.

Hong Kong Chief Executive Carrie Lam said last week that "the bill is dead." But protesters are demanding its formal withdrawal.
