What the cop knew coming to the scene, according to the comments by people there, was that this guy was drunk, verbally abusive, had punched two people including a fireman and assaulted a teenage girl. The two people in the parking lot were there to watch him until the cops got there.
What the cop did may be over the line, but he was alone dealing with a large drunk man that assaulted three people. The cops biggest mistake was immediately making contact with the guy before his backup arrived.
