“The victim had no rhyme nor reason to be taking video.”
The video I saw shows him filming AFTER his hat was stolen. Is that not rhyme or reason to be taking video?
OK. So the hat is stolen. A half-second later the kid decides, "Oh, this is a good rhyme/reason for me to start videoing", whips out his I-phone, switches it to camera, then switches it to video-mode, then begins videoing while ice-cold beverage is being rained down on him. I know kids are pretty fast on the draw with these things, but that strains the laws of physics, in my view. We shall see.
