I agree. When I watched the video it was clear the man approached the Officers in an aggressive manner. It seemed as though the one Officer shoved the man to get him out of the way. It did not seem like an overreaction on the part of the Officer. The only troublesome part is that both Officers looked at the man lying on the ground bleeding and simply walked away. But, that does not mean the Officers intended to cause serious bodily injury to the man.
even that isn’t explainable- you can see the police created a barrier around the subject- not knowing how the crowd was going to react- the video shuts off before we got to see if they did help the man once they secured the area or not you could see the police form a circle around the man- and when the one cop started to go towards the man, he was stopped by the other cop and told something- probably something like ;secure the area first’ - who knows- again- we only see a short clip that ‘looks bad’ without knowing all the details that happened-
“Two medics came forward and treated the victim. They helped put him in an ambulance and he was taken away. “
If it’s the guys in camo, they knelt beside the old man almost immediately. The officers that had the encounter also almost immediately had some yahoo to deal with that barged into the scene. Their job was to maintain the advancing line.
” But, that does not mean the Officers intended to cause serious bodily injury to the man.”
The entire world has seen this now at the time when we least need it. Fodder for the dark forces.
