In this regard, around 1:10 a.m. a friend and he decided to go home, and just when they got up, “several police vans appeared, although they had previously circled the area several times, from which several officers got out with ‘ batons’, and without saying a word”, they supposedly ran towards where they were “with a clearly hostile attitude”. “Logically, the scare was tremendous and instinct made us start running towards the nearest street, specifically towards Góngora Street, on the side of the aforementioned Treasury Delegation,” as indicated. HELP FROM A FRIEND Thus, the young man explains that at the beginning of the aforementioned street he stumbled, “as a result of nervousness”, and fell to the ground, and “at that moment, three police officers caught up with me, and began to hit me with their ‘rubber truncheon’ where they caught him,” according to his story, which adds that he managed to get up and began “to run again, but a few steps later they caught up with me again, beating me with the truncheon.” “The beating stopped when one of my friends who was running with me, upon seeing what was happening, turned towards the police officers to try to get them to stop hitting me,” the young man maintains in his complaint, specifying that “at that moment, the officers They stopped and turned around, leaving me battered.” Thanks to his friend, he arrived home, while emphasizing that “the actions of the agents were at all times offensive, never defensive,” after “without saying the slightest word, those agents came to hit us with their batons” . “They didn’t come to break up a demonstration or arrest anyone; they came to hit us,” the young man remarks in the complaint, and believes that the reason is that he was specifically wearing a Córdoba CF scarf on his wrist.
