| 105. Just watched this again. You can see Scott Olsen and the Navy veteran |
|
starting at around 2.05 - 2.18. They were just standing there, the Navy vet waving his flag. They were both inside the barricade, obviously in a symbolic gesture to protect the people. There is other footage that has slowed down another video which shows the cannister being fired that actually hit him. It then shows what looks like the same police officer as the one who threw the cannister at the people who ran to help him.
I'm trying to find that video again and thought this was the one.
