A 28-year-old Hong Kong protester was found dead Wednesday near her home, local media reports. The woman, who has been identified only by the surname Mak, is being hailed locally as the fourth “martyr” in a massive protest movement that has seized the semi-autonomous Chinese enclave for the past two months over a controversial extradition bill. The woman’s family and friends said they decided to make her death public because they believe she would have wanted her message conveyed, local site Stand News reports. Friends described being shocked by the woman’s death.
