There was another incident with Gelhaus, cited in other articles, where a paramedic said that Gelhaus saved his life when he pulled the paramedic and a combative patient away from the highway (the patient kept trying to drag the paramedic into traffic).

The impression I'm getting from these stories is that Gelhaus is brave, having saved civilians from harm in difficult circumstances, but also seems to be hypervigilant and pulls his gun on "suspects" (at least sometimes) with minimal provocation.

Well ...So who removed the orange plug from the end of the boys rifle....?

... It wasn't Officer Gelhaus.

Whoever pulled that plug signed the boys death warrant.

Maybe I missed it, but why were the cops called there in the first place? Was a citizen fearful of a person with a gun? Is that the way it went out over the radio?

Terry Leoni, an attorney representing Gelhaus in the criminal and administrative investigations, said that any implication that Gelhaus was reckless goes against his decorated 24-year history with the Sheriff’s Office.

His 24 years is not at issue. The issue is shooting a boy 7 times. In one article I read supposed while the boy was lying on the ground.
