Original Note:
The man being “brutally set upon” was wielding a large knife and was in the middle of committing an armed robbery of a store. He had been pepper sprayed prior to the clip shown and was still holding the knife, hence the force used to disarm him. https://m.sundayworld.com/crime/irish-crime/man-pepper-sprayed-by-gardai-after-threatening-filling-station-staff-with-large-bladed-knife/a600978715.html
