If San Berdu sent in three folks in gear, they would knock the story that the three guys shooting if they were cops. They are more and more talking about 3 guys on the loose.
Fog of war - they don't know who arrived when, and witnesses under the stress of a shooting are unreliable. Early information on these kinds of things is always all over the place.
