It just seems like a really petty rule to have in place. Smoking I understand, but eating just seems a bit over the top.

Tbh I think this whole situation could’ve been avoided if the cop just gave the guy a warning instead of trying to hold him for eating the sandwich in the first place and then calling for back up. Just seems like a huge waste of time.
