Genuinely shocking and disgusting. Hope the officers colleagues were just as gentle getting the culprets into the back of the police van and use as much resource as required to get anyone that fled the scene
A cowardly attack by a group of men on a lone Police Officer…Ii hope the Police Officer makes a full recovery from his injuries..
The two men who came to the Officers rescue should be recognised for bravery with an award.
So shocking,a cowardly attack on one man! Disgusting
