At one point in the video, I’m pretty sure, but I haven’t gone through it all again to check, the policeman asks if anyone can confirm if he actually hit her, as the call originally indicated. And someone said no. Since he denied hitting her, she denied he hit her but admitted she hit him, and he had the scratches and she didn’t have any scratches or bruises, it seems the policeman assumed the caller got it wrong who was hitting who, as sometimes happens in these situations.
I should point out that, as someone who has watched countless episodes of True Crime shows, an abuser, especially with sociopathic tendencies which Brian appears to have, can come of as the innocent party when indeed he's not. And abused people, especially those with anxiety and abandonment issues, such as Gabby, will often lie and say they weren't abused to protect the abuser. So while is may be somewhat understandable that the police assumed Gabby was the abuser in this situation, it is very likely that Brian was. And as I said earlier, the policman may have been biased because of his own personal situation.
“it seems the policeman assumed the caller got it wrong who was hitting who, as sometimes happens in these situations.”
Their report states that no one reported him hitting her when the dispatcher told them TWICE that it was reported that he was hitting her!

In the video the cop states that the witness said she hit him.
Police records show that on Aug. 12, police in Moab, Utah, responded to a report of a domestic dispute between the young couple. In a 911 call placed at the time, a person can be heard telling a police dispatcher that “the gentleman was slapping the girl.”
The call appears to contradict a police report in which an officer states “no one reported that the male struck the female.”
