Are Suspects Just Too Tough?
No clue what happened or why this individual became the focus of police attention, but the visuals are pretty clear. It raises a question, however. Are all perps so darn tough that they require so many police officers to beat them at once?
Wouldn't just one or two be enough to teach a lesson to a person who is laying on the ground in a submissive position? Or do cops just do such a really awful job beating people that it takes so many? Just asking.

Four police officers Barbara Provencher, Dominique Pronovost, Marc-André St-Amant & Keven Deslauriers from Trois-Rivières,Qc,Canada have been suspended with pay over possible misconduct, CBC Radio-Canada has learned.
The suspensions follows an incident during their arrest of an individual suspected of robbery last week.
The officers had been called to a suspected robbery at a pharmacy in the Normanville district of Trois-Rivières early Friday morning.
The four officers then chased a suspect to an area near the Trois-Rivières CÉGEP.
It was what happened during the arrest that has brought the officers' conduct into question.
Trois-Rivières city spokesman, Yvan Toutant, would not confirm what the police are suspected of doing.
He said police officials received information about the arrest which is not consistent with the police report.
According to Toutant, the officers have been suspended in the interest of transparency.
Quebec provincial police have been called to investigate.
Sureté du Quebec Sgt. Gregory Gomez del Prado would only say the force's internal affairs division will be investigating an alleged assault
It does take a lot of work and a lot of paid vacation time for the accused, to convince a police department that anyone in their employ could be anything but perfect.
