As the men tussled, they moved towards Mrs Robinson and collided with her. The initial contact was between her and [the suspect], who backed into her. She fell over, and the men fell on top of her.”

Torn on this one, contact with suspect, should the Police let suspect go if there are civilians around etc?

Really can't make my mind up, but equally surely something like this shouldn't require a legal case to have a sensible outcome from the Police perspective.
