San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan's security detail got involved in a physical altercation while he was downtown for a restaurant opening.
The altercation broke out while Mahan was getting interviewed by local news station KRON 4. The entire interaction was captured on video.
In the beginning of the video, the pedestrian is seen walking by Mahan's right shoulder, talking on the phone as he approaches the security detail.
The mayor politely tells the man that he is in the middle of an interview, to which the pedestrian said, 'Yeah man, I work right there, I was just talking on the phone, you got a problem?'
Mahan's security detail, an officer for the San Jose Police Department, tried deescalating the situation as the pedestrian became more aggressive.
The pedestrian snaps at the officer, telling him to 'mind your f*****g business.'
“I was going to do what the f**k I was going to do right before you walked up to me,” he said to the security guard.
From there, the situation escalated, turning physical in a matter of seconds. The pedestrian threatened the officer, telling him he would smack him.
The brawl continued as the pedestrian landed a right-hand punch to the officer's head.
Bystanders called the police for backup, and the pedestrian was eventually detained.
The officer involved in the altercation suffered an injury and was taken to the hospital, where he stayed overnight with head and neck pain.

They walked all the way from San Diego to San José just to commit an assault?

Off topic, but I once dated the reporter, Dan Kerman, back in the 90s. He was losing his hair then and doing heavy combover action.
Looks like he's gone full-on bad rug now.

They missed seeing the bastard riding the bike on the sidewalk that passes behind them.

Third thread on this topic, mein Fuhrer, though the first two were less inflammatory and, in true DL tradition, focused on the mayor’s looks.

What the hell kind of “security detail” is that? They got their asses kicked by one guy. No wonder these cops always want to shoot first. Without a gun, they’re worthless in any type of physical altercation. Teach these fucks how to put up their hands and fight.

Was there an unseen Asian guy that they assaulted? Or are you talking about the aggressive, angry dumbass in the video?
