There were about one hundred (repeat one hundred) people in the crowd there. In other spot there were about three hundred (repeat three hundred) people in the crowd.
On Hong Kong Island there were neither demonstrations nor reports of real bombs throughout the day. In Kowloon Army ammunition experts detonated three real bombs which caused no (repeat no) damage to property or injury to person.
