I read another article with more detail, unfortunately it was a police statement, so you know for a fact it's mostly lies.
They claim he attacked the cops when they crashed through his business, which I don't buy for a second. More likely he got rightly pissed, bitched out the cops and they didn't like being yelled at and arrested him.
All of that is in the original article, I'm not sure what you guys are seeing.
Edit: Apparently it's paywalled for some people? No idea why it's not for me.
Article says video shows the owner didn't strike the officer.
