Man detained outside a shop in Britain after buying a baseball bat

In Manchester, a police officer decided to detain a man who bought a baseball bat at a store. The buyer was accused of carrying a weapon.

The incident occurred on a busy street. The police officer attacked the British man, who had just walked out of the store. The officer was not stopped by the fact that the bat was brand new—it still had protective film on it.

The owner of the bat resisted, swore, and called for help. In the end, the officer pinned him to the ground, with a passerby helping him. The "offender" was handcuffed.

Many eyewitnesses were outraged by the police's behavior.

Soon, two police officers on motorcycles arrived. The handcuffed bat owner was led to a van.
