Black teenager on London charity cycle ride injured during ‘aggressive’ arrest

Words fail me. Is that what institutionalised racism can look like? FFS

Staggering. So if the victim had said white person on a bike would they immediately have been wrestling every white bike rider to the ground?

Arrested and assaulted for being a black cyclist - seems about right.

If my 13 year old son had been thrown into a bush by a copper for the crime of riding his bike id have been furious too.

I understand it's a tough job, but wtf was the copper thinking?

Why didn't his colleagues immediately apologize ?

Why didn’t his colleagues immediately apologize ?

Because that is an admission of guilt and as soon as you apologize that means you have something to apologize for.
