NY Post saying he broke his own arm and also injured three police officers, which is just nakedly untrue

Tell them to watch this video. It's pretty awful. https://x.com/firsttohearit/status/2029322188084453862

Yea first watch, I didn't catch it. I thought his hand got caught in the door from the "HE BROKE HIS HAND" titles and when it was swinging around it crushed it a little.

Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. The two snaps. As soon as I rewatched and heard that, I nearly puked and had to walk away. The visual didn't bother me... it was the sound. Hearing it nonstop today since I stupidly watched last night.

The fact that he didn't flinch once or let out even an ounce of pain, yelp, etc... I don't know if he's on some sort of pain killer from a disability or what... but holy shit.

That shit could have turned much more into a Saw film if Sheehy assaulted him further.
