G20 death investigation
With the gathering of the g20 summit there was always going to be conflict.
Unfortunately the conflict that occurred ended up with a innocent bystander being attacked and later having a heart attacker that result in his death.
There is always going to be two sided to the story.
The victim..
He had finished work and was strolling home. He did not possess any harmful items and he was not being a nuisance. The pictures and video of the incident show this.
So why was this heavy handed approach used on a man who was not shouting abuse, wielding any weapons, not even facing his attackers. He was not even part of the demonstration. But still a police officer saw him as a threat that much that he had to take force so extreme that it was able to initiate a heart attack.
The Police…
They have to rule with a iron fist at moments like this. They dont want the demonstration to get out of hand and become a fully fleaged riot. Potentially there can be alot of damage that can be caused and the police need to restrict this.
But still they should been able to see the difference between a rioter and man walking along a street.
What do you think about what happened? Were the police right to do what they did? Or were the police too heavy handed?
