The third, has mixed versions. I had witnesses approach me online who felt my son (and/or his friends) instigated it. I encouraged them to come forward with information.
If you read anything I have written about any of the incidents; you will know I only wanted the truth exposed. Even if that meant my own child was guilty of something.

But you don't know what happenned hours, days, or weeks before. Perhaps there is more history to the event than you know and the witnesses only saw the culmination of that. Kids aren't always up front about that stuff.
I had a friend back in high school who was jumped by a group of kids that he was feuding with (and it was his own fault), but if an adult had been there when he was jumped, it would have looked unprovoked.
Again, I don't know your kid, so I'll just keep it a general comment that people tend to attract these events when they occur with frequency. Parents also tend to have a strong bias towards their own kid. I know my parents thought I was an angel and that every bad thing that happenned to me was due to other people's doings. They didn't know half the crap that I was into. In retrospect, like most kids who get into trouble, I played the victim role pretty good and usually had teachers and such on my side.
