He's got dark brows. Can't believe he's only 50! He looks at least 60.

According to reports the suspect was 50 years old.

Everyone is giving conflicting reports. He was questioned and released and was cooperating.

Either:
Guy got in an altercation and death was accidental
Someone else did this. There are lots of flags and those are large flags. Large flags at protests make me nervous. Small flags are OK, but large flag poles can quickly do a lot of damage. I wish people wouldn't bring large flags.
