Since you have so much time to yelp about personal attacks, perhaps you'll find a minute to respond to this:

I guess your solution would be to take down the guy and handcuff him till you could determine if a crime had been committed.

No, that would not be necessary in order to ask the girl, "Was this man hitting you?" And why was knowing his name necessary in order to ask the girl?

The guy approached the cop. The cop has a right to know who is approaching him and why he approached him.
