156. at 56-58 seconds into video when he is much closer to camera with back of head to camera. I couldn't

make out any head wound. (I stopped the tape too). Maybe your vision is better than mine but even with stopped motion I couldn't see any head wound. If he was supposed to have his head pounded on sidewalk, why would there be grass stains (also not viewable on video) on back of his jacket???
