I understand mistakes happen but how did this go down?

Police officer yells "You over there walking calmly. Put down the sword. Put down the sword or I'll fire".
(Blind man pauses wondering what the hell is going on).
"Yes you. Drop the sword NOW or I'll fire. Okay firing!".
(Blind man drops to the ground in convulsions wondering that the hell is going on).
Police officer spots the blind mans white stick is not a sword.
"Okay, my names Ashden Kutcher and you've just been punked!".
Another officer "It's no good Sar'g, he might be blind but the twenty odd onlookers aren't".

You missed the step where the police officer jumped on the blind man as he lay prone on the ground and slammed his knee into the guys back.

This is Ludicrous and makes me cringe!

Incredibly glad that the UK force has special armed forces teams or I'd hate think what could have happened to this pensioner, even so, how lucky is it that he didn't suffer more severe injuries?!
