I informed you, I'm certainly not going to run. ... That is actually simply mosting likely to produce matters worse." Hill verbally observes the police officers' orders throughout the video. At least one officer tries to cause with Mountain as well as de-escalate the condition as onlookers movie the accident from both the sidewalk and their lorries." I am actually merely being a Dark man, that's it," Mountain shouts. "I'm simply being actually Dark in The United States."" Our team are actually darkened, too, brother," one officer replies.
