Falling off a kerb, Police statement.

Shoplifter injured in Atlanta (Now that was a well written Police report.)

Shoplifter injured in Atlanta



From the police report:
Orville Smith, a store manager for Best Buy in Augusta , Georgia , said he observed a male customer, later identified as Tyrone Jackson of Augusta , on surveillance cameras putting a laptop computer under his jacket. When confronted the man became irate, knocked down an employee, drew a knife and ran for the door.
Outside on the sidewalk were four Marines collecting toys for the "Toys for Tots" program. Smith said the Marines stopped the man, but he stabbed one of the Marines, Cpl. Phillip Duggan, in the back; the injury did not appear to be severe.
After Police and an ambulance arrived at the scene Cpl. Duggan was transported for treatment.
The subject was also transported to the local hospital with two broken arms, a broken ankle, a broken leg, several missing teeth, possible broken ribs, multiple contusions, assorted lacerations, a broken nose and a broken jaw, injuries he sustained when he slipped and fell off of the curb after stabbing the Marine.

Thought this was another Snopes case but.

This happened on the 25th Nov 2010 (give or take a day)

News reports don't go into the police report but one does make mention of how well trained US Marines are.
