I agree, however the student had time to turn on the camera on his video phone. something smells fishy here. seems like once again we are getting half of a story
I don't think it was the the Taz-ee's phone that was being used. It says 'a student's' not 'the student's'.
If I wanted to record something I was a bystander to - it would take 15-20 seconds from 'holster' to recording. However I'm not one of those people who feel they need to record every little thing. As seen on youtube for instance.. :)
