My daughter went to a school for children that having learning disabilities, and most of the kids had some type of behaviour disorders. In our first meeting with the Principal, just outside his office the Vice-Principal had to restrain a child that was having some severe behavioral issues. My wife is a nurse and they are taught how to restrain people. I don't know how to do a Police Officer's job at all, but I would think they're trained on restraining people properly of all ages and sizes.
We obviously don't have the full story, but trying to logically think this through, I can't see injuries like that being necessary or unavoidable, and I don't think a 12 year-old can give himself such injuries. It's a really bad situation if they feel they have to call police in order to get some help for him. I heard the father on the radio this morning and it was just so sad.
