The S/D argument crossed my mind, but the article says the bloke was already restrained?

Also, headbutting someone isnt a typical form of self defence is it? (As opposed to throwing a punch, for instance)

It sounds like the guy that copped it fully deserved it, not sure that makes it legit for the police to go around headbutting criminals that threaten them
