A man protesting outside the Chinese Consulate in Manchester, England, was grabbed by a group of men, dragged onto consulate grounds, and beaten.
During the melee other protestors and with additional onlookers tried to prevent the man from being dragged away.
British police arrived pushing the protestors back while the man was dragged further behind the consulate gates, even throwing some aiding the man to the ground.
Police slowly intervened and eventually pulled the man from his abusers, but not before cameras captured multiple blows to his head while he lay on the ground.
