Do you doubt that u/c were on the job on 5/17? I would consider it gross incompetence if there were not.
What troubles me is that that Stroman’s men were sitting in their vehicles when the violent altercation began. The violent altercation was preceded by escalating tensions and ominous movement on the patio. (The reading of the property seizure affidavit clearly indicates that it was created from a review of videos. I am not convinced that the uniformed cops knew what was happening until the first shot was fired.)
If the uniforms DID know of the dynamic situation evolving, why did they not bring some units into the parking lot before shots were fired?
