So seems shortly before the protestors at the Capitol Hill riots actually overrun the barriers and went from protests to riots the cops there were actively pulling people out of the crowd and beating them senseless even after they were subdued and detained.
Nice way to start a riot huh?
@Hyolobrika the article itself is about a different topic, it was shared because its the only source of the video.
The video however does clearly support it, did you watch it all the way through? You can clearly see towards the end 2 officers beating a handcuffed man they pulled from the crowd while the crowd is still (at this point) contained behind the barriers.. you then see later on, after the crowd chants about the officer beating the dude for a bit, that the crowd then overruns the barriers.
So the parts I described seem plainly visible in the video, even though the article was not about that.
@Hyolobrika yea thats understandable, the cutting makes it hard to piece it together.. but you can see the barriers in place when they are beating the guy and the people behind it, which after cutting you seem them trampling. so the continuity, while not the clearest, seems to be easy to infer, at least to me.
