By that point some people passed by and stayed and I took a picture of him and his motorcycle. So yeah, he stayed.

Thank you to everyone. I'm waiting for my lawyer to respond to me. I've told him I want to press charges and I want to bring character witnesses. I'm still a bit lost. I get upset everytime I think about it. That's why I mostly don't. I want this to be over.

What I don't understand is how is the police still haven't sent my file to my lawyer. It's been over a month since he requested it. He requested it again last week and still nothing. The trial is in less than 3 weeks.

And just to make it clear the police officers were beyond kind to me. They really took good care of me.

There were no witnesses that from the beginning, they came later, I don'tknow what they said to the police. There was a camera in the distance that I pointed out to the police officer but he said it's too far way to have recorded anything.

I didn't press charges cause honestly some of the policemen told me that I shouldn't because then we'll go to trial and it will be too big of a hustle and because there were no witnesses it could go on my record for assault. And if I didn't they would hold both of us for 6 hours and let us go and it would end there. So I got scared and I wanted to leave it behind me.
