He was definitely trying to create a problem by trying to ??? with his cellphone to the officer’s waist. He wasn’t shoved very hard but fell. The fall looks fake but, as a 70 year-old myself, I can tell you I don’t have the balance skill/strength that I used to have.
There’s a photo that I saw that claims he had a tube of blood in his ear area and that he released this during or after the fall. Anybody know if that’s true? The blood did seem to accumulate awfully fast after the fall.
Speculation is he was “communications scavenging” when he reached with his phone towards the officers belt.
