Hey, Minneapolis PD: why the hell is someone

with this kind of mindset involved with a SWAT team?
Sgt. David Clifford, a member of the Minneapolis SWAT team, turned himself in to authorities on Sunday after a father of four who he reportedly “sucker punched” for talking too loud spent Father’s Day in intensive care.

Mike Archambault told KMSP-TV that his longtime friend, Brian Vander Lee, was at a restaurant in Andover on Saturday when a stranger at another table asked him to be quiet.

“He did a Superman punch,” Archambault recalled. “Brian went back, feet up in the air, and the guy landed on top of him and his head bounced off the concrete.”

Archambault said the suspected fled the scene and Vander Lee was taken to a nearby hospital where doctors performed emergency surgery for bleeding on his brain.
He then fled the scene and hid out, turning himself in the next day with his lawyer.

In the comments someone pointed to this story; it looks like this clown fits right in with the SWAT team. Or maybe he helped make it the way it is. Not bothering to knock with 'You Must Knock' warrants? Flash-bangs and killing every dog in sight? Just a effing credit to law enforcement, aren't they?
