Best I can see, she was in the wrong... as was the man being taken down. I cannot tell if the officer was in the wrong or not, but absent full info, I would side with the officer on this one. Neither the man taken down, nor the woman, should have been doing what they were doing.

This, your surrounded by people and your alone trying to arrest a guy who is resisting and ignoring you, people start grabbing you, for all you know they might of been grabbing for his gun....he got her to draw back, the rest of the people to and disengaged....she should be arrested for assaulting the cop in my opinion....you DONT grab a cop ever, especially when he is attempting to arrest someone....
A cop should not have to wait until hes actually stabbed or shot to react when people grab him in that situation, the people were clearly not only ignoring him but brazen enough to start fighting him physically.....what else did people expect him to do, just stand there while she pushed and pulled him?
