I saw that a lot as a deputy. People would escalate what was a minor situation be getting enraged way beyond what was called for and end up turning what was a minor issue into an arrest or worse.
I once had to arrest someone because she went to buy cigarettes and the store wouldn't sell them to her without ID. She started pitching a fit, screaming and refused to leave the store. We got called, I showed up, told her to leave and she refused. That was already criminal trespass at that point but I decided that try and get her out and called down instead of arresting her. I try to guide her out the door with a hand in the shoulder and she punches at me.
So she turned just not being able to buy her smokes into an arrest for disorderly conduct, criminal trespass and assault on a police officer.
My guy gives me the same vibe here, but it's just gut feeling based in the limited info we have at this point.
