Is there a longer video than what I've seen so far? The man getting in their way, being shoved (but not hard), perhaps after putting his hands on one of the cops first, falling back, one of the two cops in the direct confrontation looking down at him and saying something (would be interesting to know what the cop said. A taunt? An "Are you OK?"), and a third cop holding up immediately and getting on his mobile as the other cops continued. Presumably the third cop called for a medic. That's where the clip I've seen stops. Did the third cop stay with the man until medical attention arrived? Did the protester receive medical attention as soon as possible?
I'm not seeing this as outrageous police brutality by what I've seen so far, and the protester clearing voluntarily put himself in harm's way in what I've seen.
When a person is unconscious, bleeding profusely from their head/ear, you can't leave it at a phone call. Every second counts with certain types of injury, and whoever could get to him first should have been checking that he was breathing, not being dragged away from the scene by his colleagues.
You don't leave a casualty unless either you're in danger, you've assessed them and they're safe, it's the only way to get help, or a someone more qualified has reached your position and taken over. They're the most basic rules of first aid.
