At first I accidentally read that the kid was eight-years old and so I didn't know what to think. Then I read that the kid was 15 and I was more inclined to understand the police's actions.
I think officers should have non-lethal options, but in a situation where you are under pressure, life-or-death, suspect not complying. I don't think they could have responded nay other way.
There have been many instances of police abuse, but I have no reason to think this was one of them. See this video for more info on the abuse I mentioned. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gH9k8L3oDa4]
