was unprofessional.
Complaint #1
Alleged officer got into our faces screaming at us only an inch from my boyfriend's face, saying
"do you not know how to listen? I said stop! Get back on the side walk now". I was in shock to
have him run at us and yell when we had already said sorry and had already started backing up,
and as I was crossing when it was our turn, I made a comment that he was acting like a junior
high hall monitor on a power trip and shouldn't have gotten in our faces when we had already
apologized. Again, he turned around, took off his traffic vest and tried handing it to me when
yelling, again only an in from my face, in a dominating posture "here, you take take my job, why
dont you do my job" and I said "I don't want your job, I want you to not get in our faces
screaming at us after when already apologized and said we didn't hear you". He continued to
scream, mostly in my boyfriend's face, yelling at him. My boyfriend asked the officer for his
name and badge number, and the officer continue to yell in his face "do you know how to read?
here's my name and number. Why don't you read it"
