Twenty-two police officers have been injured during clashes at an illegal street party involving an estimated 400 people in south London.
Two officers and two people at the party were taken to hospital following the "unlicensed music event" in Brixton on Wednesday night.
Four people were arrested and the Met described the attacks on police as "totally unacceptable".

They failed, visibly, in their duty of care to somebody being detained - there is no way around it.

In what way do suggest they use their guns?
How would simply handcuffing him, with hands behind the back, stopped him from thrashing around, especially using his legs and/or spitting. He was already handcuffed, hands behind the back, and sitting(or trying to be sat) in the patrol car. At some point, they had to be able to get him in that car, and down to the station. He might've been interviewed by the Secret Service. He was accused of a Federal offence.
Short of using Chloroform, what else were they expected to do?
