From the linked article about the actual incident:


It sounds like Browning did not get out of his car, was facing one aggressive person who was punching him, with a second person joining the attacker. Pretty much the definition of disparity of force SYG or no.

-a couple other factors-
what was the relative size disparity between the parties?
was Browning's vehicle blocked by the other two so he had no option to retreat?
what was the concern about driving? was alcohol involved or were the brothers driving carelessly so as to cause Browning to call a report? I do that whenever I can identify a vehicle that is clearly a danger to other drivers. In the great majority of cases, I will cease following once I have given all important information but a few times it has been so hazardous that I will follow and stay on with 911 until the police arrive.
