Most all drunks will fight whenever they are being arrested, "resisting arrest", and even when they are on drugs....It's the cause of domestic violence also in so many cases.....So yes, I believe King was fighting in order not to be arrested for drunk driving and having to go back to jail.
And believe once a person is under the influence, he feels "less pain" wnile fighting or being beat up. Alcohol & drugs fog the mind and ease the pain....So, even when he was down, he was still fighting...so the beating continued....
And yes, I believe it was an over-kill (the beating)...guessing the police was very angry that he would not stop resisting arrest.
