Man anhållen för att ha knuffat barn i fontän på park i Georgia

En man i Sandy Springs, Georgia, ska ha knuffat två barn som cyklade in i en fontän på en offentlig park innan han gick på konsert. Polisen grep honom mitt under föreställningen efter att ha granskat övervakningsvideo. Händelsen inträffade den 28 februari och framstod som oprovocerad, inga skador rapporterades på barnen.

På kvällen den 28 februari cyklade två ungdomar runt på sina cyklar genom City Springs Park vid 1 Galambos Way i Sandy Springs, Georgia, en förort norr om Atlanta. Enligt ett pressmeddelande från polisen rapporterade de att de blivit överfallna av en oidentifierad man som knuffade dem in i en närliggande fontän. Surveillance video captured the encounter, showing Stephen Catterton walking along the path as the boys approached on their bikes. As the first boy passed, Catterton allegedly pushed him directly into the fountain. Moments later, he bumped the second boy, causing him to tumble toward the fountain on the opposite side of the sidewalk, nearly striking his head on a ledge. The video indicated the actions were unprovoked, and neither child sustained injuries. Officers responded to the scene and identified Catterton, who had proceeded to the Byers Theater for a concert by the Irish band the High Kings. Midway through the performance, police entered the venue and escorted him outside. Body-camera footage recorded Catterton asking, „Vadå?“ En polis svarade: „För att ha överfallit ungdomar. Vi har det på video.“ Catterton svarade att cyklisterna „sprang rakt på mig“. Poliserna kontrade dock: „Nej herrn, vi tittade på videon. Det kan du berätta för domaren.“ Catterton togs i förvar och frigavs senare mot borgen. Specifika åtal angavs inte i meddelandet. Polisen i Sandy Springs skrev i uttalandet: „Att knuffa barn av cyklar är inte bara oacceptabelt, det är också ett snabbt sätt att träffa våra poliser.“ De tillade en varnande kommentar: „Om herr Catterton råkar vara er granne bör ni kanske vara försiktiga.“
