KC Officer
The officer was not on the KCPD payroll at the time. He was working a second job, doing security while in uniform. A common practice all across the US.
He only chased him about the length of a football field, not even that far.
He was clearly trying to defend himself from a fighting drunk, who as a fireman had good physical strength.
The reason "Firefighter" is in the article, the original story mentions the fact, that KC police officers and KC firefighters have not been on the friendliest of terms for years. He didn't know the guy was a firefighter until later.
