That would have described me pretty fittingly when I was around 17.

Initially I thought "What?", but the report seems to clarify that someone allegedly swerved to deliberately run over a pigeon, then reversed back to beat the pigeon to death with a walking stick, in front of the entrance to a "pigeon-friendly" vegan food shop. Someone reported this as "potential animal abuse" to the police. I imagine the police ignored them or told them to fuck off, hence the small protest.

What a sick person, who goes out of their way to do something like that to a poor little pigeon.

In my experience, a lot of people in mobility scooters are entirely miserable and pissed off at the world
