Haven't read the whole thing, but why was he being arrested? If it was seriously for selling "singles", that's fugged up. Did he have a warrant out?
I'd entertain the notion of powers of arrest being trimmed way back for police. Maybe only when a suspect presents a clear and present danger to others. Otherwise, let'em hand out tickets, accept a FU, and go on their way.
Regardless- Once they initiated the arrest, it was all on the dumb fat fugg. He squirmed his way right into a body bag.
That would be about right for the chickenshit offense of selling untaxed "loosie" cigarettes which I've heard precipitated the whole mess.
Welcome to the utopia of Der Mayor Bloomberg and the hard lined fascist socialists.
Coming to a state near (or surrounding) you, soon.
