One dude commented more than once that the guy had a weapon (knife); someone else agreed with him. The guy drops something as he's grabbed, and the cop to the right picks it up; I can't tell what from the video, and I haven't found any detailed articles or posts about this incident.
Regardless, this is excessive force. That cop just wanted to throw somebody around.
Uhhh, his head hit first and it sounded like an egg cracked? OMG!!! Are they okay?!?!?
If he is dead or has brain damage that cop is dead meat no matter what. There was no reason to slam that person like that!
