Let’s see: He’s afraid for his life so he runs away and then the cops catch him and beat him to death.
Makes perfect sense.
Yeh, I don’t think there’s any way to explain this one away. The victim was not a criminal. Maybe he had good reason to run. They refer to these guys as the scorpion squad so I guess they have a reputation.
It sounds to me like he DID have a reason to be scared! Look at his picture, he wasn’t a large person. Every single one of the 5 cops was much bigger than him.
