      They literally were plain clothes and didn’t announce themselves. He was defending his family.

        You can’t know if they did or didnt announce we only have the audio from the female in the vehicle.

        5:54 you can see the badge in clear view on the officer to the left, its been exposed the whole time.

        They new them by name so this wasn’t their first encounter.

        6:35 the aux unit has its wailer running, again police. Well before the wheelchair bound individual was in the mix.

        6:43 LEO starts to defend themselves a full 8 seconds after the wailer and cherries and berries.

        It was a bold move Cotton, lets see how it works out for him in the end…

      Cops didn’t announce themselves and tried to restrain his brother forcefully. I would have grabbed my gun too wouldn’t you?
