Man Dresses As Horse, Runs on Race Track

HONG KONG

A British resident of Hong Kong was convicted of disorderly conduct and causing a public nuisance for dressing as a horse and running on a popular race track last year to urge full democracy in the Chinese territory.

Matt Pearce, a longtime Hong Kong resident from Bristol, England, was given a one-month jail term Wednesday for each of the two charges, but the sentences were suspended for 18 months.

"I'm shocked," Pearce said of his sentence.
