Witnessed an accident. Looked like they were both pulling over and o.k, so i pulled into the parking lot and went into the store. When i came out of the store and was pulling out of the parking lot i saw only one car(the one NOT at fault) and a cop just pulling up behind her.

I pulled behind the cop(who was just out of the car) and walked withing 6 feet(kept my distance) and said "hey, i saw everything but gotta run... Want my number?" He rudly replied "maybe....once you step on the curb". He then ingnored me.

I said F' it and walked to the victim and gave her my phone number and name and told her to call if need be for insurance reasons. The cop then came to me and DEMANDED my license.

I simply said "for what?".

He freaked out and said "listen buddy!!! You are a witness to a crime...GIVE ME YOUR LICENSE!!!"

I replied "You don't have to be an ass. I'm just trying to help but i need to go"

He then exclaimed " YOU CALL ME AN ASS ONE MORE TIME AND YOU'LL BE IN THE BACK OF MY CAR IN CUFFS!!!"

I handed him my license and asked "whats your name?"

He handed me my license back and said "GET OUT OF HERE.. JUST LEAVE"

My question- Can a cop really arrest someone for being called a name, or was he just bluffing?
