Well that took a dark turn!

I was told aim for your hand at about ear height, so in effect just a bit up from parallel.

They released the audio. Some of the audio.

"head mounted" so I'm hoping for something like this...

Second caution for dissent?

It doesn't change the seriousness of the incident, but the CAR was 22 rather than a minor.
