A teenager who allegedly beat a police officer unconscious during a protest outside Madison Square Garden was arrested at another demonstration in Union Square Tuesday.
Jamal Holiday, 19, was identified using a videotape of Monday night’s incident. As protestors clashed with police, Detective William Sample was pulled off his scooter and was repeatedly punched and kicked.
Sample has since been released from the hospital and is expected to make a full recovery.
Holiday is charged with second-degree assault on a police officer.
Today is his birthday. Happy Birthday, Jamal. I'm sure you will "receive" quite a few presents tonight!!!
What's that quote... "You're gonna look awfully funny tring to laugh with no f****** teeth."
Jamal? A muslim perhaps?
The polite protestors of Sunday and Monday (and they were polite; they got an unfair rap when what looked like a common city street thug beat up a policeman), were things of the past by sunset Tuesday as rumors— and people— ran rampant.
PLEASE correct me if I'm wrong, but is this not the most racist thing you've heard since, well....since sKerry addressed the NAACP?
