I doubt it. As I said earlier the officer was pulling his strikes. These were no where near full force strikes and were meant for compliance, not injury, to facilitate taking the individual into custody... easily articulated by the officer, regardless of if there was a criminal arrest.

What is clear in this thread is there clear misconception of the actual use of force that is required to gain compliance from a resisting individual.

And yes he was resisting that is perfectly clear. Why? Because had he been this would not have been a issues, he would have been placed in handcuffs or maybe not even that, but a complying individual is calm and doesn't run from the police.
