"battery and trespassing"

I can understand the charge of trespassing. But being put under "citizen arrest" and then being charged with battery.

It seems the battery charge would be more something that the police would charge if he struck a officer. To be cuffed by two citizens implies that he was on the receiving end of the force.

That admittedly smells of charges "tacked on" as a "CYA" maneuver.
