A bystander has body-slammed a protester after they threw a can at a police officer during the ongoing riots in Los Angeles.

Leading up to the textbook tackle, the protester was seen dancing and taunting sheriff deputies before throwing a can at an officer.

After the can was thrown, officers fired tear gas at the protester, and as he attempted to get away, a bystander body-slammed the protester.

The bystander’s tackle on the protester led to the man who threw the can at the deputy being arrested.

Law enforcement sources confirmed to CNN that the suspect who assaulted the officer was arrested, booked, and is now in a nearby county jail.

IMO, it doesn’t matter.

It’s showing everyone how it should be done.

The perpetrator may have been drawing a gun.

Every football coach in the country is going to show this to his team. This is how to do a wrap-up tackle.

The Rams have some Defensive holes to fill. Hopefully Coach McVay saw this.

It looks like the punk in the brown shirt next to the tackling dummy went down / to jail as well. Love it.

That kid has obviously played football a lot. He knew exactly how to execute.

Watch that pistol pop out and bounce toward the backpack. Thug.

Dave Rubin featured this classic form-tackling video on his podcast today with an offer to buy the tackler’s dinner.

Poorly written headline makes it sounds like the tackler threw the bottle at police.

Drove him into the concrete. That’s how to finish a tackle.
