Background: In Xiaogan City, Hubei Province, the community manager is responsible for taking care of daily necessities for residents during the coronavirus lockdown. But they always sell food at inflated prices. Some residents purchased cheaper vegetables through their personal network, and arranged the food delivery. However, the community manager reported the residents and food-delivery volunteers to the police.

When police came to arrest them, residents were outraged and spontaneously organized a group protest.
