Ditto. Comcast is probably one of those dumb *beep* sites that blocks content availability outside the US,

Yeah that was totally uncalled for and a typical pig response from the cops "respected cop" father too :x

He didn't even fire a warning shot first, j/k; He should have just stopped the guy, the bicyclist didn't even offer any resistance or get a chance to, he was just slammed into.

It could have been any one of a number of riders before the cop finally decided to attack someone. There are many videos of cops seemingly abusing their power though these videos don't show both sides of the affair. This one just shows a random attack without any provocation. The rider happened to be at the wrong place and time.

Here's the same video on Youtube. AFAIC, this 'Kid cop' should lose his job, what was he thinking? Cops need thick skins. As an ex-rider I am obviously appalled! Oh, and the cop got a 'laceration'? Give me a break! :roleeyes
