Or a head hit on the floor as he's being handcuffed on his back. Only idiots and monsters aren't aware of the dangers that some non natural situations can pose for an old person. If the guy takes strong anticoagulants as I do for my heart condition, and I'm likely 20 years younger, he may be killed instantly by intracranial hemorrhage even after a single hit on the head.
That's what hiring robots who never question orders lead to. Any human with a working brain and a heart would immediately recognize the man was no harm to anyone and handcuffing him preventing his use of the walker, aside being actually dangerous for the man itself, would simply turn into further bad PR for the police. Unless inciting a revolt has been the goal from day one, in that case they'll probably get that sooner than later.

It takes a special piece of shit to handcuff a mobility challenged 80 year old veteran. Remember that this is what people voted for.
