the story is kinda vague, did the officers restrain him and forcefully take his piece and id? he said “without consent, and emptied it of ammunition.”, in my mind taking my weapon without consent means im on my belly in cuffs and they take it, if this were the case doesnt it seem redundant to order the man to hand over his id? sounds more like he handed them the weapon which would be consent.

i have heard of police unloading CC weapons during traffic stops (in states where you have to inform the LEO you are carrying) and such, i can understand a LEO feeling uncomfortable about talking to an armed person that someone had complained about, i am not condoning their actions at all as i dont know the details of the altercation.

need more info.
