First of all, this is a truly wonderful photo. I think it would benefit from a little contrast adjustment but it really is a terrific shot.

Poor headline, bad composition, too dark, out of focus, lucky shot. Minimal basic editing could have improved this, and a decent headline (topical, specific, active) would have convinced me to rate it higher despite the quality issues. Crop out the guy's hand on the left, and maybe even the cop on the right, brighten and increase the contrast, see if you can sharpen at all, though you really should deal with that issue when you take the shot.

Good photo. But definately not a good headline. What is the charge? (make one up) And you need more faces toward you for a newspaper shot, in this one all but one person is turned away from you.

Comment by Phileine:
you must have felt great when you caught this shot. It's a bit out of focus and i would have cropped off the distracting elements on the foreground. Also the cop on the right with the portophone needn't to be on the picture.
