Not surprised to hear this at all. Based on what they said he had in his possession, there was no reason to arrest.
you can chase a suspect, and question, because someone running at seeing a cop when in a high crime area is enough to have reasonable suspicion. That doesnt mean tho that running alone is cause to arrest.
