It is easy to condemn this police officer, but before we rush to judgment, we perhaps should attempt to put ourselves in the shoes of the officer. Police officers must react with amazing rapidity to all kinds of things that most of us could never even dream up. They must make split-second decision

Diana, I saw a writeup of this story. The man had filled his gas tank and left his wallet on the top of his car by accident. Someone found it and thought a robbery had occurred, an APB went out as a possible robbery, the family was pulled over, the people were pulled out of the car and handcuffed.
