The reason that the spokesperson of the police department gave for that incident was that Alum was confused with a possible crime committer.

Not only did the public rage at that deed, but also they look for their rights which is why the entire European and American continent in protesting on the streets, demolishing statues of slave traders to show their angst against the idea of white supremacy and their dominance in the world.
