ForceHQ 117 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 (edited) https://youtube.com/watch?v=esWoyH5vZSk I have zero clue as to the context. However I thought it was well handled by the officers in what I perceived to be an incredibly challenging but not unseal environment. Yes I could say I would of done things differently, but I'm sitting down and not there. I suspect most officers, even if it's not for long, reflect after a scrap and evaluate what they did well or could of done differently. I do. I also think the youtube commenters have got the right idea as well. Edited April 15, 2015 by Cheetah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think the youtube commenters have got the right idea as well. "Is this police brutality in the UK?" - NO. As soon as the male who was actively resisting used the phrase 'I'll take you down boy' to the officer, he was perfecrly justified to resort to escalating to his baton. It appears the officers are in a confined space, few places to 'retreat' to, and there's a hostile crowd. I'd be red buttoning it. This is a perfect example of why taser should be issued to all officers. You have two officers, having to resort to what can only be described as a fight, to bring 1 male under control. It is neither safe for the officers, the DP or anyone elese. Edited April 15, 2015 by millfield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScotLass + 638 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 If there's one thing that really irritates me, it's female Officers with their hair down in ponytails. To be honest the very first thing I thought when I pressed play was, "There is no way she can see everything that is going on around her with her hair like that and she's just asking for someone to grab it".
