Lots of people who read blogs like this one know that local photographer Thomas Hawk likes to take pictures around town, sometimes taking pics of architecturally interesting buildings where rent-a-cops hassle him [2] for — taking photos of the buildings. The threaten him, they lie to him, they say they’re cops. But today, a man claiming to be a police officer and refusing to provide identification or proof, assaulted Hawk [1] while he was at 45 Fremont Street taking photos with other local photographers.
Read his account of what happened [1].
