Man films cop, who quickly unholsters his weapon for no apparent reason

In only the most recent incident involving authorities, filming, and firearms, a new viral phone video from California depicts a bizarre situation where a local police officer unholsters his weapon at a man for no apparent reason.

The video was taken by Don McComas (aka Ryan Jones), of Rohnert Park, California, about 50 miles north of San Francisco. The 5-minute film was posted to YouTube on August 3, and it shows a Rohnert Park police SUV slowly approaching McComas on what appears to be a quiet residential street. In the YouTube notes, McComas writes that it all started when he was out in front of his house, hooking up his boat to his car.

Parked and seated behind the wheel, the officer seems to be taking a picture of McComas with his own cellphone after two minutes. Then, the mustachioed cop exits the car and approaches McComas, telling him to "take his hand out of his pocket." The author then unholsters his weapon, pointing it at the ground most of the time (although he appears to start to raise it).
