Background to the video. The lads in the car were driving round Derry city centre squirting people with water cannons and lobbing water balloons at people. One fella took exception to this and sat on their car bonnet with a knife. Drama ensues.

I can't make out from the video, did he shout the official 'Peaceful protest' to make everything ok?

Not sure why this warranted its own thread in AH.

Moved to CVPL, where it may be more appropriate. Please read the charter before posting.

Suprised the police let the car go, would think a statement would be needed.
