Even though from the info in the OP I was sure nobody had been shot, I still tensed up when he drew his weapon as in his agitated state and the general chaos at the scene (much of it his doing), it just would have been all too easy for the gun to go off, either intentionally or accidentally.

I pray he never patrols the streets again. Someday the likely outcome is not going to be as fortunate.
