These officers were way out of bounds. Without any probable cause of a crime being committed there was NO justification for any investigation and no basis for demanding ID. These guys obviously slept though their last Act 120 (PA State
Municipal Police Certification) updates during the section about needing probable cause to detain someone, and the citizen was entirely within their rights to tell you to piss off and not ID themselves if you didn’t have PC to suspect a crime was being committed.
There is NO APPLICABLE SECTION in PA Title 18 (PA Crimes Code) to charge for open carry. Here’s a tip to the Chief ..............IF IT AIN’T IN THE CRIMES CODE IT AIN”T A FRIGGIN CRIME YOU MORON
And here’s tip for the keyboard commando E. Allen.
A 911 call for a man with a gun is justification for an investigation. Did the investigation go to far, yes.
You need to research the difference between Reasonable Suspicion and Probable Cause BEFORE you share your expertise and criticisms.
