There were other armed civilians there protecting property from the thugs. He was not the only one. Some reporter said he was on his way to join the others when he got surrounded.
I think there is an earlier vid of police handing him water.
From what I have seen he was not agitating.
Was it foolish of him? Probably
We don't even know if his parents knew he went there.
The facts will come out
