it should say he was held down on the street not in the street 2407:7000:AB5A:9607:889D:23B9:DE70:D5C5 (talk) 06:16, 13 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Both work. Slatersteven (talk) 10:48, 13 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, agreed, both work but differ ever so slightly in their meaning.

• "in the street" is stating by implication that he was held down within the confines of the street itself.

  on the street" is stating by implication that George Fliyd was held down on this particular/singular street's surface.

Both are true and both are verifiable. Just wording according to editorial consensus. - Shearonink (talk) 20:07, 23 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
