It goes WAY beyond bad attitude. They knew (or should have reasonably known) that their actions would induce a stressful reaction in the person they stopped.

Did he resist? I don't know--but one thing is for sure. If and when it was determined that this person had NOT been involved in the hit-and-run they were looking for, they should have taken all reasonable actions to assist him rather than leave him there with a "go 'eff yourself" attitude.

I support the police as much as anyone, but not when they pull crap like this.

Or maybe in a semi-related thread, you'd care to spin how a sheriff's deputy up in Wisconsin blows away six people as a "stress" factor?

They did. Their job is not to hold his hand, but to find the actual suspect. Time is wasting.

What are you talking about? What does that psycho loser in WI have to do with this thread?
