I guess if I step back and look at this from another perspective:
.
The firefighter may not have recognized the cop as having any authority to touch him.
If I’m not mistaken, the cop is in a security guard uniform.
What if “Dead Guy” thought he was dealing with a security guard and had No Authority to touch him?
Still, the cop is on duty 24 hours and retains police power.
And he made a stupid submission move by coming over the top of the guy, who then turned the cop on his back.
Still, if yer gonna get in a fight with anyone and they have a gun, you better be damned sure and win.
Consequence of action and the cop was messed up.
I don’t think his head even bounce when Dead Guy hit him.
Looks more like his fist sunk into to his soft head.
Dunno.
Maybe cop coulduh called for backup first and waited it out with a drunk guy.
I know I never liked fighting drunk A-holes.
Last guy I got in a fight with, 8 years ago, was real drunk.
Really shouldn’t drink as he usually gets aggressive.
I knocked out his two front teeth and cracked his jaw but, suffered a spiral fracture when I wasn’t paying attention and he got his mits on me.
Didn’t end well for him and his only real flaw was hitting me in the head.
I usually have a very violent allergic reaction, like eating puffer fish or sumpin.
I usually blow off being hit in the shoulders, stomach or back but, head shot and it’s game on.
Dain Bwamage is permanent, death is forever.
This ain’t high school...
I do wonder why the sissies in the video and the Man, masquerading as a girl, didn’t help.
Sad all around. I won’t even kill a bee. I just pick em up and put em outside. They’re lost.
All things in this world are dangerous but, not all things are presently dangerous to me.
It’s certainly valid to point out that the guy’s friends should have jumped in and separated the two. They probably would have saved his life.

I was thinking perhaps the cop knew the guy was a fire fighter and was trying to ‘give him a break’ and not get anyone else involved.
Maybe because of the BS that has been going on recently but I find that headline (though true) to be more than a little inciting.
For what it is worth I think it was probably justified but amazing to see people that thought the ‘White Hispanic’ should be completely exonerated (I fit in there, thinking he was justified (in the long run) want to hang this particular cop.
You are mistaken. KCPD officers wear their duty uniform and side arm while working security while off-duty. And if they witness a crime, they're required to intervene.

The cop needed facial reconstructive surgery and did lose consciousness at the scene, after shooting the firefighter.

You ARE mistaken.....according to the article
"Hubbard, who was working security for the Marriott while wearing his Police Department uniform, saw the group arguing and saw Anthony Bruno leaving the area.
