Maybe he just said, "Hey guys can you get out of the street " and kept on moving?
Maybe it was not the incident that DJ made it to make this officer look angry or aggressive.
Huh? Still not getting you.
They were given a directive, and basically said they'll do it when it was convenient for them. That in and of itself is refusing to comply. We have no idea if he ever heard the BOLO, but he gave them a directive b/c as much as some want to label it "simple jaywalking," he told them to do,something b/c they were engaging in an illegal manner, and based on this street a dangerous manner. when a cop tells you to do something, you do it. And I think they often "check" to make sure that their directive is being complied with.
Crazy personal experience.
Last summer we were having a huge issue with our neighbor across the street. In a nut shell, he was doing extensive renovations on his house, and was disrupting my small block (only 6 homes, on decent sized lots). Multiple large trucks blocking driveways, street traffic, starting work before village code allows it, etc., etc. He basically turned his house into a large scale construction zone, and didn't give a crap how much he inconvenienced other residents while doing it, or that he continually violated village codes. We had to call police a few times b/c verbal arguments started happening. Well my oh so considerate neighbor decided we were the problem b/c we were making complaints. So one day he decides to make a huge spray painted 6'x8' sign with derogatory remarks directed to us, and propped it up at the end of his driveway. Obviously we called police. We watched from the house as a cop pulled up, got out and spoke to him...then drove away. We were shocked, thinking shouldn't have the cop spoken to us? Shouldn't he tell us what happened? Well, he obviously thought this guy might not comply with his directive to take down the sign, b/c he apparently drove around the block, and when he came around the corner and saw the sign still prominently displayed for all the traffic going by to see, he threw his car into park in the middle of the street, and approached my neighbor. Needless to say, the cop was not happy. My neighbor hung his head in shame, nodding away at whatever the cop was saying, and quickly took the sign down.
Whew. Long winded, sorry. But it seems common that when a cop issues a directive, more times than not they are going to "check" that the directive was complied with. If it hasn't been, that cop is gonna have something to say, and rightly so IMO.
who does that when there's a sidewalk
