In my opinion, the off duty cop showed a decided lack of common sense.
Pure conjecture follows:

"Hey, Officer Billy Joe Jim Bob, I know you are having dinner but there is some guy in my bushes scaring me. Can you come check him out?"

"Sure thing, Scaredycat Sally, I'll be right over." "I'll be right back, honey, Scaredy is seeing the boogy man again. Yeah, I'll take my gun just in case."

A few minutes later:
"Holy crap, this drugged up nutball is kicking my ass... oh crap here he comes again... I think this guy is gonna break my neck!!!"

POP POP POP!!!

End conjecture.

There are zero details in that news story. My version of a cop trying to be a good guy is as good as any other story until/unless the facts are brought out.
