If a citizen with a CCW had been walking by and reacted exactly as the cops did, mistaking nozzle for gun...fear for his life..the whole nine yards, he would be rotting in jail right now.
One thing I am uberly impressed about with this story, the police chief actually admitted the 2 officers didn't identify themselves. Even if he only did it because they're 2 officers he dislikes, it's refreshing to see an honest chief. A good number would have covered for the officers in question and lied about how they followed procedures. Or said something to the effect of "we're currently looking into this incident and have no comment at this time" which is basically a lie to buy time.
