Eyewitness tells inquest police 'kneed' Andre Moura 'in the head' before shouting: 'he’s foaming at the mouth'
Police officers ‘kneed’ a dad ‘several times’ during a struggle in a street before repeatedly shouting ‘he’s foaming at the mouth’, an inquest has been told.
Earlier this week, the proceedings heard a snippet of a 999 call from Ms Regueria, who called the police to inform cops she had asked Andre to leave as he had been 'taking drugs’. At this point, Mr Martin continued, Andre ‘went to run’ away from the situation. That led to an ‘escalation’ of physicality, he added.
Mr Martin said he thought the ‘blows’ struck Andre’s face and upper chest, but accepted that it could have connected with his ‘torso’, following questions from one officer’s lawyer. The neighbour did however say that his ‘stomach sank’ when he witnessed the fracas. Ms Pearson, also appeared on the same video link. She corroborated many details of her partner’s account, including the element that officers had ‘kneed him in the head’.
