#2 I think the Estonians are very well versed in how the Russians do things, and know when they are full of piss and curl papers.

#3 The ministry said Tallinn has not named the Russian, who had permanent residency in Estonia and was killed in the early hours of Friday, or provided the circumstances of his death so far, while also condemning the excessive use of force against people who defended the monument to fighters against Nazism.

I was about two blocks away when this happened on Tartari Street, which is a side street with a lot of shops and one bar with a Harley theme. The original stories reported that "Oleg stabbed Dmitri".

Turned out that wasn't true, and they didn't have a suspect in hand, although they did have another Russian with bad injuries.

There were no police in the vicinity, because there were trying to control the square where the party started. Russians leaving the square turned to looting shops in that area.

This link gives you a taste of the chaos in that area.

As for "excessive use of force," the police were professional and very-well under control. Problem is, there weren't enough of them to control other areas of the city where the looting broke out.
