Backup was already there if you look at the clip at a slower rate or periodically stop it. Look at the top left corner and there's LEOs dealing with someone on the ground; another one enters top right moving to the left toward the crowd. No doubt a lawsuit is on the way and there will be lots of discussion in the "court of public opinion". He definitely took decisive action against a woman several inches taller than him, but even with video there's gonna be subjective opinion and differing stories about what was being said and done. Just glad it's not my job to figure it out....
