So what "crime" did the kid commit?
He *ran*
Hardly a crime that calls for...
McGowan caught up with D’Labik in a convenience store. A surveillance video without audio shows McGowan, gun drawn, approaching D’Labik. D’Labik, who had his hands up, begins to get on the ground. When he is in a “push up” position, McGowan stomps him in the upper back. That sent D’Labik’s face into the floor. He lost several teeth.
He was *complying* There was *no* reason whatever to get stomped into the ground.
He can't get sued for running. He can sue for getting stomped and losing teeth.
