I thought they'd let him go immediately after this intimidation attempt. From the replies on Twitter, it seems he had to spend the night in jail and got charged for disobeying a lawful order. I hope they have everything on camera. Strange that there had to be an order only for him as he was the only one who got arrested.

where cops have been acting this way all along, my guess is that his "crime" was that he put a foot on the street when they were told to stay on the sidewalk.
