11. Did you see the hit?

Nov 2014

I saw what appears to be a swing and a sound that may have been a hit, but I did not see him actually strike the car owner. He most likely did, but I can't prove that. I can prove with that video that the LEO committed assault on both the car owner and the camera man.
