I've seen the video and it's a complete overreaction by a couple of idiot cops who got there backs up when he refused to give his details, which he doesn't have to do.
It's quite clear on the Rozzers website
yeah and then he got violent so got arrested,
as he was a suspect refusing to give his details was going to get him arrested either way.
what exactly do you want polcie to do?
say i go out now and go to town.
police there get a report fro ma woman shes been assaulted in town about 30 mins ago, description of the attacker, 5'10" white male, black hair, beard grey shirt and blue jeans. she think he said his name was steve but shes not sure.
a description that roughly fits me.
the polcie see me in town and stop me to check if i am the suspect.
I can tell them who i am, show id and where i came from so they can check and leave contact details should they need to follow up.
or i can shout "
**** OFF I'M NOT GIVING YOU MY NAME"
now the polcie at this point do what?
"oh ok then off you go, hope you're not the attacker"
or arrest me, and if i attack them use force to arrest me.
