    Civilian on a bicycle in downtown Milwaukee ignores police tape to rifle through a suspicious backpack cordoned off by police officers. He was quickly tackled by authorities and taken into custody. https://abcn.ws/2IFiLrA pic.twitter.com/i5qPe4mpxa

        I count 14 seconds between touching the bag and the flying elbow making contact. This looks like the cops messed up royally and then chose to take out their embarrassment on the opportunist. If I was him I would be saying "what the hell else can happen to me?"
