This is the punk who shot the officer, crashed through a 3rd-floor window, landed on the street below, and was momentarily caught by police. His injuries came during his "struggle" with the officers.
Apparently the mouth guard is to protect people from the sight of his jaw/teeth, which are assumed to be in pretty rough shape.
No comment.

He allegedly shot a cop then shot out a third story window and jumped. The cops found him soon after. What I want to know is did he take a beating before or after the hospital visit? The hospital said he was admitted for lacerations.

I think considering what he did,the police showed great restraint. A little "slap" on the wrist never hurt anyone.

yellowdoghunter and all. I'd like to know how many people here would care if this actually was a case of police brutality. I mean frankly, it would be pretty hard to get those bruises on you're face from a that kind of fall and yet have no broken neck. I personally believe the man deserves the rope for his crime. So out of curiosity how many people would be that "appalled" if there was some police brutality.
P.S. this is my first time ever posting in a forum. Forgive me if I am too off topic. And I'm down w/ constructional criticism unless that's too off topic as well.

What the hell happened to his face? As someone who frequently spends time in Rhode Island, I can tell you with a fair degree of certainty....one should NOT dick with Providence cops.
