Apprehend him and deal with it in a dark alley. Then let him go.
Excessive? No. Necessary? Perhaps not, but still a good teachable moment to help discourage any copycatting of that behavior.
This young man should count himself fortunate. Attempting to disarm an officer is a deadly force incident.
I listen to the young woman in the video and just reminds me that there is NO way to sanitize violence, to make it palatable.
“...including multiple kicks to the groin...”
If it took a bunch of boots-to-nads to subdue him, he was on something.
And like Hellboy said: “I’m gonna be sore in the mornin’.”
He ran. He did not stop when the officer said stop. He was struggling with the officer.
He has no claim.
If he was already in cuffs and could not resist any more, there should be no more hits to him by the police.
What actually happened?
The answer to the question is ‘no’. If he was battling with three cops, he was obviously on something stronger than what he found inside in the antihistamine aisle. Throw the loser back across the border.
