I don't get this story at all (not suggesting that what Brian
has poted is wrong, I've just heard it on the radio).

But I can't work out if it was started as a "this is why he ran"
explanation, or as a crass attempt to blame the victim.

Both supporters and critics of the police action seem to have
denied it has any significance either way.

Confused.
